Admins, can we get an Upvote / Downvote update? (Top Posts, Threads, etc)

After deployment of this feature, a lot of users are still unclear as to the purpose of the upvote/downvote.
Forums do not allow sorting by top post, top thread, etc., however a lot of people still will upvote/downvote a thread or post. Where does the information go?
If it's stored, would it be possible to get a weekly/monthly feature of "Top Thread" or "Top Post" so we can see an funnies posted?
I'd love to see how many people "Down Voted" for things like:
- Mouton fat/diet/suck in shaming
- Poli Board Dem Shaming
- Racist post Upvotes
- Soccer Board Circle Jerks
and so on and so on.
We are doing a lot of work on here on the poster side using the new features, now it's time for some ROI.
So Rummy, Chicken, etc, can you give the good folks a bite and let us know who the funniest, most controversial, etc posts are here on a periodic basis.
OR
tell us to ignore the feature as it lacks any robustness or usefulness and it will be silently retired like Ole Yeller..

This isn't Reddit. Downvoted.

It serves ZERO purpose at the moment. The ONLY thing it could be used for right now is interactive polls but admins whack those threads.
ETA: An example of an interactive poll would be something like this:
If you think Kate Upton is fat upvote this post, if you think she is hot downvote it.

The hallmark of any good software design.

Could have at least named it something kitschy: TigerTails or TigerHeads

It's already been established that 2004 was the best year in TD.com history.
