What is the longest span of weeks in which there was a different #1 every week on your chart?
For me it is 12 weeks from November 1, 2008 to January 24, 2009. While two songs (Lights - Drive My Soul, Britney Spears - Womanizer) spent more than a week at #1, they were nonconsecutive, so there was no uninterrupted run during this time. If we are only talking about songs that didn't return to the top, then the streak would be 8 weeks (ending the week before Drive My Soul went back to #1).

April 18, 2009 through June 27, 2009: eleven consecutive one-week #1's:04/18/2009 - Put It On Ya - Plies / Chris J. 04/25/2009 - Right Round - Flo Rida / Kesha 05/02/2009 - Beautiful - Akon / Colby O'Donis / Kardinal Offishall 05/09/2009 - Dead And Gone - T.I. / Justin Timberlake 05/16/2009 - Just Like Me - Jamie Foxx / T.I. 05/23/2009 - She Got Her Own - Ne-Yo / Jamie Foxx / Fabolous 05/30/2009 - Blame It - Jamie Foxx / T-Pain / Yung Joc 06/06/2009 - Love Sex Magic - Ciara / Justin Timberlake 06/13/2009 - Never Ever - Ciara / Young Jeezy 06/20/2009 - Want It, Need It - Plies / Ashanti 06/27/2009 - Sugar - Flo Rida / Wynter Gordon I seriously doubt this record will ever be broken for me. I've had at least four occasions in which I've had 5 back-to-back single-week #1's, but only one other time (December 6, 2008 through January 10, 2009) did I even have 6 in a row, let alone 11. I suppose 2009 was for me what 1975 was for Billboard. 2009 was a year with a lot of anomalies on my chart to begin with, such as the self-replacement at #1 of both Ciara and T.I. and the back-to-back self-replacement of Jamie Foxx (an accomplishment which remained uniquely his until 5 Seconds Of Summer did it in 2014). 2009 also had some of my least memorable #1's ever and some of my least memorable songs ever.

I've had a few 3-week streaks of one-week #1's:
In November 2004, there were Destiny's Child "Lose My Breath", U2 "Vertigo" and Gwen Stefani "What You Waiting For?"
In March 2009, I had Britney Spears "If U Seek Amy", Jesse McCartney "How Do You Sleep" and Miley Cyrus "The Climb" all back to back with one week each.
Then in August 2011, there was Demi Lovato "Skyscraper", the Red Hot Chili Peppers "The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie" and Adele "Someone Like You".
November 2012 had Fun. "Carry On", Maroon 5 "Daylight" and Alanis Morissette "Receive".
The most recent time was in April 2016, with David Cook "Broken Windows", Lukas Graham "7 Years" and All Saints "One Strike".
