Recently Popular/Most Viewed Widgets?

I’m on the hunt for a more aesthetically pleasing most viewed widget for my blog at https://sophrosyne.radical.r30.net. I’ve tried Top 10, Popular Posts, and WordPress Popular Posts. None of them are especially sexy. I’ve seen a few widgets that have tabs for recent/popular posts – similar to what they have at the BBC (ex: https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8634356.stm).

Anyone have ideas?
