I have to say, I agree with Ahiku. To do it like that would be immensely difficult. I'd say we'd just take recommendations from people following the blog, write it all down in several categories (fanfiction, fanart, blog, etc.) and

1. look if something get's recommended more often than the others (then that would probably be the best of the month)
2. keep track of who was already on the best to make sure it doesn't pop up twice in a short amount of time
3. if there isn't anything that's clearly more popular than the other's right now, I'd use a random generator on all other suggestions we collected until then.

That should be doable with a simple Excel table, don't you think? Just mark the ones already titled 'Best' with a color and keep all the others + doing a column for 'What' and one for 'How many recommendations'.
Yeah, if it gets really much, we could always draw several, you're right. And I would totally keep the ones that didn't make it into the 'Best of the month' yet to give them another chance ^^ This way, we'll have something to recommend even if people momentarily stop to suggest fanarts or anything.
