Member Group Stars Based on Posts

[Wormopolis]

Browsers Tested: IE Chrome and FF
Placement: global footer

This code will change the number of displayed stars to reflect post count instead of the fixed number of stars assigned to a member group USING the member group star set.

so lets say you have a custom star for a member group, this code will display the number of stars with the numbers you put into the array (typically the same assignments you would give regular post ranks)
