For what it's worth, I favor sorting the list rather than limiting it.  
Maybe we should also have a message explaining that server operators are 
volunteers and can choose to leave so having servers with different 
operators is a good idea?

I would even suggest that the "best servers for you" list should never 
have more than one server from any one operator in the top 3.  Pick 
servers from adjacent regions if needed, but always have the top 3 be 
from three different operators.
