I'm not sure if a "better results" option applies.
Either the account gets broken into or it doesn't. We won't know if it's at the hand of a script-kiddie or not and it would actually be more scary if it was. The only real way I can see this experiment failing is if the account gets compromised due to an e-mail breach. Which doesn't establish anything about the security of the PIC other than (like someone mentioned earlier) the hackers found the e-mail to be an easier way in than the PIC.
This entire thing just looks like a bad version of a guy who doesn't believe in hackers and goes "well if it's real then come get me ECKO!" then 3 posts down "well I haven't been hacked yet so you're a liar stop giving out info"
Obviously not exactly the same but just my own first impression.
Disclaimer: I know this has nothing to do with the past hackings, it is to test the security of the new PIC.
