While one of AOL's searchers was publicly identified, enthusiasts are tweaking, and randomly scrolling the then leaked, now publicly available search queries data. Here's someone that's neatly data mining and providing relevant summary of the top result sites, and the top keywords. SEO Sleuth :

"was created out of the recently released AOL search data. Welcome to the AOL Keyword Analyser. This tool provides insights that have never before been publically available on the web. I claim: First tool on the web as far as I know that allows you to view what keywords people searched for it in search engines. First time you can see how much organic traffic each site gets from a search engine. First opportunity the public can see how many clicks individual SERPs get."

Surprising results speaking for the quality of the audience by themselves. Meanwhile, the EFF is naturally taking actions.
