No.  There are questionable practices you can utilize to maximize the number 
of uniques in your log.  On the other hand, there are quite a lot of loud 
stations that have few uniques, again, because of the practices the 
operators utilize to minimize them.  Many of these loud stations with few 
uniques are also in the top ten boxes.

The latter guys get bent when the former guy, who gets his whole club on the 
air (or one guy sending calls off the club's roster) to work only him, winds 
up in the top ten box alongside them with 10x as many uniques or more.

To quote NF1J, "It's just wrong."
