I mentioned this earlier in the thread that coins like NXT should not be on the list when they are only listed on their own exchange. Too easy to manipulate. Also they can change the rules at any time like MCXnow did, or shut down and the coin basically becomes worthless because it isn't traded anywhere else. If you are investing in alt coins and using coinmarketcap.com as a source of information it is very important that you click on the price of the coin which will take you to cryptocoincharts.info and take a look at the exchanges that a coin is traded at and the BTC 24 hour volume. A premium coin will be traded at several of the larger exchanges like vircurex, bter, cryptsy, btc-e etc, if not all of them. A scam coin like NXT isn't traded on any of those sites and is only available on it's own exchange. If you look at the 30 day chart of NXT http://coinmarketcap.com/nxt_30.html you will notice spike peaks and valleys and extreme volatility even compared to other cryptos. This is indicative of an in-elastic market with only one exchange and relatively low volume. NXT's price is an illusion, I just watched it go from 5th with a market cap of about $24 million back down to 8th with a market cap of $14 million in about 5 minutes.

Is it just me, or does Nxt belong with the Ripple's of the world? The coin appears premined and controlled by the devs, thus propping up the price per coin.

Yes, the more research I do the more I am disturbed that they are having any success at all. I thought people were smarter then this. The coin is not premined. It is 100% created and given to the stakeholders. Basically the same effect as 100% premined. So people rip on other coins for having small premines while NXT is 100% Further mining for fees is biased towards those who already hold coins with those with the most coins having the greatest chance at mining success. In order to get some NXT you pretty much have to buy it form the stakeholders and they are not selling cheap. I thought the whole idea behind mining was so that those not fortunate enough to be highly bankrolled could have a chance at controlling some of a potential successful currency. There are plenty of BTC millionaires who mined BTC in the beginning and never forked over cash to take a position.

There are plenty of BTC millionaires who mined BTC in the beginning and never forked over cash to take a position. Every PoS coin will fall into the same concerns you have at some point. For example, years from now some kid that never mined any PPC will only be able to get them through purchase since mining eventually fades out. Would you delist PPC at that point? The point of the charts isn't to provide some level of validation on whether a coin is legit or scam - if it was this thread would be 100% chock full of shills and trolls trying their best to knock coins off the list or fluff them up.

Added sorting options as requested. I'm looking at the trades API and there seems to be very low volume (50 trades in 4 days). Is that right?

I'll second the call for including Mastercoin (MSC) on the list. Exchanges for it are starting to pop up and while the trading volume is still pretty early stage / spiky, the trading volume hit $1,000,000 USD equivalent during a 24 hours period, for the first time a few weeks back. http://mastercoin-explorer.com/charts/monthlyThanks.
