Rather than just the top scores.
Since some of us will likely never go anywhere near the top of the leaderboard on anything ever, why not instead of showing your score+top scores, allow us to see our score+scores nearby we could pass, based on percentages (example: no score set, show top score, a score halfway between average and top, average, etc, etc).
For example: Say you're ranked 5000 on a popular map, and have no hope (based on accuracy average) of ever getting into the top five. Why not show for example, your score, score of 4500th, score of 4000th, score of 3500th, etc, more reasonable scores that the player, given enough practice, could reasonably pass.
Then again, this would take too much work to implement...
