pretty sure this is a load of nonsense.  I put in the postcode of a well known pollution hotspot in the centre of Glasgow and it gave it a rating of one...  I had to put in a postcode right beside a heavily congested motorway to get a two.  This would seem to imply that you would have actually live inside an exhaust pipe to get three+

I put in where I live, where I used to live, where I was born and where I work  - and they all came out as 1.

It's a very specific measure of pollution - I suspect that London might be the only place where it might have particularly interesting results (and that's not even certain).

EDIT: I checked where my work used to be based in London (on Charing Cross Road) and it came out as 3.

My old office near St Pauls:

This is the same as the average for City of London, which is 4 out of 6 (lightly polluted).
