Um, I think you're taking such a poll way too seriously. If you consider it a popularity contest, obviously it's very accurate. I'm presuming most people vote on whether they like something, rather than whether they deem it a significant work. I know what I like, so I don't let it bother me that every year the charts are topped by things I didn't enjoy particularly.
