I have now moved on to phase two. This new list features the winners for a ten-year period, 2002-2011 (plus their Special Mentions from the year they won a prize). I had originally planned to go back just nine years, since next month I'll be rolling off the 2002 data when I add 2012 (I'm keeping a ten-year, rolling list).
This new list is pasted below. The next phase, as previously noted, will be to add in the data from Special Mentions for the ten-year period. This will take a week or so, but that will complete the 2011 list (just in time to work on the 2012 list in November).

What a helpful piece of analysis, Clifford. Thanks. I'll share it on Facebook.
I agree with Ned: this is great analysis. I've long been curious about how the "notables" and reprinted essays in Best American Essays might give us a sense of journal rankings, but I haven't had the energy to pursue such work. Do you think you might ever tackle that task?
