I wasn’t referring to the total percentage but to ranges: for example when it estimated from 65-75%, it seemed to be wrong 1 in 4 to 1 in 6 times instead of 1 in 3 to 1 in 4. But maybe my sample was still too small.
My livejournal gets 58% female; my synopsis of my webcomic gets 81% female; and my serial fiction, which I coauthor with another woman, gets 75% female.
What was the percentage? The tests I’ve done have range from 31% to 73% for the correct answer.

I’m sorry—I meant the percentage for the blog post and for Alicorn’s post.
66% for the blog post, 56% for Alicorn’s original post. For this comment : http://lesswrong.com/lw/1ss/babies_and_bunnies_a_caution_about_evopsych/1ofp , it gave 70% female, which is reasonable: it’s much more obvious than in the original post (apart from the fact that she says so explicitly which I assume the thing doesn’t know.)
