By all means, keep track of the number of readers, but if each story were reviewed by the same panel, the reviews would be more useful to both authors and readers.

I agree Paul and some of us just enjoy it. Also if Authors were paid then the Site would have to get the money for such from somewhere such as charging for access to the stories themselves. As for a panel of experts reviewing stories --it would be a matter of opinion just who is an expert, and if they were willing to give their time to do so ---there are more and more stories being published on the site so this would be a time comsuming task to review each story. But it would be great if every author would take time to review one story a day or atleast one every time they logged on.
