How is "popular photos" populated?

Now that I got the link to Popular Photos working, the number of popular photos has skyrocketed from a few hundred to 1000-even. Many of these are in unlisted galleries and only viewable if I linked to them in a forum or something. Some are so terrible that I can't imagine a human being had anything to do with making them "popular."

Please advise.

Thanks.

    If you log out I don't think you will see any photos from "unlisted" or "passworded" galleries.
    In legacy a "thumbs up" or photo comment would add it to popular. In NewSmug a "like" or
    comment will add it.

    Smug does not disclose how they are added to popular but above is part of it.

    Thanks for the reply. When I logged out I still had 1000 popular photos, which is kind of out of nowhere. But I don't see any unlisted ones in there. Thanks again.
