The scatterlpots [1] of the time taken for the leaderboard (top 100) to finish part 1 (silver) and part 2 (gold) are a better indicator of difficulty.

I'd like to see a plot of average (median or mode) to finish each part but only the site has all that information.

Those box plots use horizontal jitter within individual boxes to better show overlapping points. That's a neat technique I haven't seen before.
