Bridge scores visualized

As part of the OK regional webcast, I built a page to display the match results from the Twitter feed, with a simple visualization of bridge balancing. You can view it for all of the regionals with Twitter data here: http://www.botsnlinux.net/frcwebcasts/

Browsing through them, I was a little surprised how stark the differences were between the regionals. At the high end, the Livonia District has had a coopertition balance nearly every match, and several matches where all 6 robots got off the ground. On the other hand, the Oklahoma Regional is about 14% on the coopertition bridge, and there's been an average of about 1 robot balanced per match. Obviously the level of competition is very different between these events, but I didn't expect this much a difference. Thoughts?

PS - If anyone wants to see/use my code, just PM me.
