One problem with following your suggestion is that you cannot refer to an older test again. By including the test id in the URL, I was able to email myself the link, make some changes to my site, then run it again and compare the new results side-by-side against the old results. If only referenced by the site URL, no such comparison would be possible.
will run the test on www.slowcop.com at the time the link is clicked, but have a way to retrieve a permalink URL to that particular test which is like:
Thanks for the suggestion, this is a great idea. I couldn't decide on a link structure for reports, so I just decided to use ids. But more meaningful links would be a useful feature.

Nice. Very useful.
Suggestion, try changing your URLs. instead of
http://www.slowcop.com/reports/4d6468ff34b95f3cbb000554
try http://www.slowcop.com/reports/www.slowcop.com
by doing this you will get a lot of link traffic.

Might I therefore suggest a hybrid.
Using http://www.slowcop.com/reports/www.slowcop.com
will run the test on www.slowcop.com at the time the link is clicked, but have a way to retrieve a permalink URL to that particular test which is like:
http://www.slowcop.com/reports/www.slowcop.com/4d6468ff34b95...
so you can reference old tests for comparison.
