This is hack is pretty straight forward, though you'd only probably see this on novice sites.
As in the screen shot below the bands rating is 2.314 which is pretty unimpressive. Now you have the choice of giving a rating of 1-5. But even if you gave them a 5, its not really going to improve the band's rating to the top spot.
However there is a way for you to save them! See the action tag? The method is specified as a "GET". Now get methods always use information from the URL which is visible to everyone. Now to hack into this, you simply change the value within the parenthesis to the desired number like " 999999". When you hit submit, since its a GET method, it'll take the corresponding value as 99999 and hence will raise the bands status by 99999 points.
This only works for GET methods not POST methods.
