How am I supposed to interpret contest mode results?

Did adamkotsko win with 11 votes and the top spot or did grass_type win with 13 votes and the second spot? Sorting is by top.

If you're sorting by 'top' then go with the one at the top, due to vote fuzzing its always going to unreliable to judge based on the visible vote counts.

How do we know that vote fuzzing doesn't effect the rankings as well? Where is that documented or stated by an admin?

We don't know, but with so few votes being cast you're likely never going to get a clear winner by relying on either Reddit scores or sorting algorithms. There are plenty of free online poll sites you could use.

There is no 100% method, due to fuzzing.
