With one exception, my most heavily viewed stories are all from writing challenges:

1. Return: 2009 CE - 1327 hits (Good Omens, rated T, 1004 words; Purimgifts 2010)
2. Aedificāre - 1289 hits (Eagle of the Ninth by Rosemary Sutcliff, rated T, 7305 words; Yuletide 2010)
3. Turning Points - 1143 hits (Ballet Shoes by Noel Streatfield, rated G, 3,123 words; Yuletide 2009)
4. In Harmony - 429 hits (Dragonriders of Pern by Anne McCaffrey, rated G, 1217 words; Yuletide treat 2010)
5. Like New - 333 hits (Abhorsen/Old Kingdom series by Garth Nix, rated G, 1492 words; Yuletide treat 2009)
6. Perfect Fit - 273 hits (Discworld by Terry Pratchett, rated M, 551 words; Springkink)
7. Like Likes Like - 258 hits (xxxHolic/Pet Shop of Horrors crossover, rated T, 2005 words; Springkink)
8. Return: 950 CE - 249 hits (Gentlemen of the Road by Michael Chabon, rated G, 866 words; Purimgifts 2010)
9. Return: 700 BCE - 237 hits (Torah, a/k/a Hebrew Bible, rated G, 588 words; Purimgifts 2010)
10. Flesh of My Flesh - 210 hits (Saiyuki, rated T, 142 words; not from a challenge)

I'm guessing that Aedificāre will soon surpass Return: 2009 CE - the movie The Eagle and recs in communities drawing on that buzz have given it a huge boost.
