This is a script similar to the Greasemonkey script. It will display the artists that you have in common with the user whose page you're currently browsing.
This version will allow you to check all of your top artists (up to 500, or whatever the current limit is in the charts). This version has this scaled back to the top 300 artists.
If the artist match is in your top 50, the artist name will be bolded and underlined; if in the next 50, just bolded; and if in the last bunch, italicised and underlined. Feel free to change the styles. Hilight.user.js
Note: while coloured text could be used to highlight, this distinction would be lost if you used a custom theme.

Okay, this incarnation is the latest and shiniest.
There are a bunch of changes. As noted in the preview, there is a sidebar panel which allows you to see the number of matches in each grouping. You can select which of your charts to use in the panel - the default is your overall artist chart. Beyond the preview: you can toggle between hiding and showing those artists that don't match yours; use this on group charts; and adding the "taste-o-meter" reading at the bottom of the panel. There is also the possibility of setting the minimum number of plays in your chart to allow it to be elegible for matching. This has been set to 1.
I've made a break with the past, and have used colours in this one for the matches. You have the option of changing these as you see fit, by editting the file. You can also add your own divisions, if you wish.
Right click on the link below, and save it to your user script directory. Make sure to name it with the .user.js extension. ArtistMatch.Opera.user.js
Enjoy!
EDIT: Note - this doesn't work on the user's main page any more. You have to go to the charts (or change the top of the scripts).

B4sti4n said: hmm... seems that it doesnt work on the charts pages.
"This summary used 67 artists from the 247 on your overall chart, and 0 artists on this page."
You will see that on non-chart pages, if you make change you indicate below: but if you add // @include http://www.last.fm/user/* it works quite well on users main pages
Can you please include the url of a page where the script is not working for you?
Thanks.

chatterer said: do u can make an option to hide same artists? That is a great idea. You can see what other people play that you don't. I'll work on that as the next enhancement.

Something changed on the site and the script stopped working for me. I have updated it, with chatterer 's request included. (The fix is only on the Opera version.)

For Opera users, new feature - sort by match. This uses the "dot product" rating to score the matches. For Greasemonkey users, umm - you get to see the number of artists and plays on the chart page! (That's new.)

Great and very useful, thank you! I'm using the Opera script right now, but it only seems to work with the default timeframe of the user whose charts I am browsing.. is there any way for this to be fixed?
You will need to open the tab fully for other periods of time (e.g. under Opera, right-click on the tab and select the "Open" item).
I can't seem to trigger on the switch between tabs that Last.fm does from within a user script. If anyone has ideas on how to do that, please let me know.
