It's better to stick to word of mouth. Even /r/anime's Best Girl Contest has introduced me to more good shows than MAL ever did.

Thanks!
Yep I agree for sure. I only use it when looking at current season.
I also think it completely over-represents comedy. Comedy shows get extremely easy high ratings while niche shows like slice of life or high quality seinen that don't appeal to the junk-food audience of anime will struggle to compete with easily likeable comedy in the ratings.
On "popularity" in a given season it represents a useful tool for measuring how many in MAL's specific audience are watching a show though, I do notice some differences in the "popularity" ratings across different sites.
