Not hugely surprising overall but I'm wondering how it is that I had "Old English Heathenry" at #2 and "Asatru" at #14, which seems really odd because I'd consider my heathenry a lot closer to the latter.

Yeah, I'm not so sure on accuracy. #1 was Hellen (OK, but I've never practiced it), and Druidry was down at #9 (?!?). However, Heathenry, both Old English and Asatru, showed up higher than I expected. Yet I've pretty much always identified myself with Druidry. Go figure.

Interesting: Hellenic was #1 for me as well. . .

Maybe we're all Greek and we don't know it? Or maybe we should take the more sinister approach: It's a consipiracy by the Illuminati to get us all to convert to Hellenism!

Discordianism at #20 my left foot. :)

I'm thinking that one thing is that there's no mention of pantheon, and for a lot of us that is going to be a primary consideration. The quiz focuses on practices amd so forth, and that's pertinent if all else is equal--but if you have perfect Asatruar ethics but it's the Egyptian gods who call you, you are probably going to go Kemetic regardless.
