Are you a glutton for punishment?

Then this is for you:

Site tells what people think of your looks

If you look at yourself in the mirror and see Brad Pitt or Heidi Klum staring back at you, Facestat is not for you.
If not, well ... Facestat.com is a Web site that bills itself as "market research for the individual" and it's based strictly on looks.
Upload a photo and Facestat will ask a series of questions based on age, gender, ethnicity, intelligence, political affiliation, attractiveness, trustworthiness, wealth, weight, intoxication and relationship status.
It's not for thin-skinned, supersensitive types; the results will offer up a general - and sometimes brutal - assessment of what the average person thinks of your looks. Think of it as your snapshot based on snap judgment.

Anyone else heard of this?

UPDATE
This is what comes up when you put in the site right now:
Sorry!Turns out Yahoo put us on their front page without any giving us any warning... (We appreciate the traffic but weren't ready for a 1000x increase in load :)) We're working on getting the site back up in the next couple hours. Send an email to request@doloreslabs.com, and we'll send you an invite when we're back up, or check back in once we're off the front page.

Bummer
