Johnny Depp topped IMDB.com's 2004 STARmeter while Lindsay Lohan placed a strong second in the rankings, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The movie resource and database website also had Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley and Angelina Jolie rounding out the Top 5 as it unveiled its top 25 movie stars.

The rankings are determined by the site's STARmeter, available since 2001 through its subscription service, which ranks celebrities' popularity among IMDB.com's more than 22 million monthly visitors. The listings are an aggregate of search and page-view patterns of the Web site, reflected in weekly rankings. The list is the compilation of the year's data.

According to IMDB managing editor Keith Simanton, Depp and Lohan were in a heat for the top spot, with Depp popular in the first half of the year, no doubt because of the success of "The Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl," while Lohan was tops in the second half.
