I used the original source list (from 2003) since it had the rankings for cities both with and without surrounding metro areas. From that I created the 2 lists. I think I only put the top 10 cities because I didn’t want to keep track of all the changes. (too lazy!) Plus I made a couple other ‘top 10’ of the world lists and they fit nicely together. I tried the link you provided but could not find any data, only links to other sites. :(
