An entity ranking system is described herein that provides an input signal of ranked attributes between a data source and an entity viewing application. By providing an input signal of ranked attributes the data source can influence the manner in which these applications consume the properties and relationships of these entities. This allows presentation of new information in a "most relevant first" manner and provides a cut-off point in cases of limited space. The system looks across the spectrum of property types and values for a given entity type, identifies the diversity of each attribute/value, and computes a rank based on multiple distance measures. Thus, the system provides ranking information from a data source to describe how to rank entity properties so that applications can be written more generically to deal with many types of entities while still displaying the most relevant entity information.
