Interesting, I didn't think of that yet.

I think most people search for domains they own, which doesn't correlate with Tranco popularity ranking. Treating 'popularity' not as a function of visitors, but as a function of number of known domain names with that prefix could work, though.

Fair enough, if people visit frequently you could probably save their previous searches as a cookie too.
