What does the number next to the scale on the upper right hand of a post mean?

I've seen different numbers on posts. What does it mean?

If you're talking about your #1 (next to the scale in your above post) and the #2 on my post - it is the post order in each thread.

Thanks TN Mama. I thought it just referred to the number of posts in a thread, not the order of posts in a thread :)

I wish it were that low.
