 * I am building a custom post type (CPT) that requires a form that users may choose
   to submit. Regardless, I want any user to be able to see the current summation
   of the results. This is similar to how to codex article on AJAX says WordPress
   uses it..
 * “Several themes and plugins also use Ajax; for instance, some post rating plugins
   use Ajax to store the visitor’s rating in the database and then display an updated
   average rating.” – [http://codex.wordpress.org/AJAX](http://codex.wordpress.org/AJAX)
 * How can I create an element that shows an average rating from user inputs on 
   a CPT entry?
