NEW COMBINED RANKING. By demand I've written the page, 4th-10th is pretty close. Also, new levels now available (have been since midday GMT, 1st December 2004). See discussion forums and download page.

Does not require downloading and works behind all firewalls (I think, as from

It is generally slower and missing a few features (record/playback and level
editor support) from the downloadable versions.
