You can probably get even more correlation if you account for "l33tspeak" i.e. swapping letters for numbers that look like them.

    password => p455w0rd
    password => passw0rd

Don't forget adding ! or 101 and so on to the end of a password and capitalizing the first letter. "Password1!" is likely to pass complexity and length requirements quite well.
