Half’s SEO Notebook has a comprehensive explanation about his new PR tool which he calls Supplemental Results Detector Tool.

“What this tool will do for you:

• Gives you complete control over internal PageRank distribution.
• Helps you visualize exactly what's going on with your internal links.
• Takes the guesswork out of solving supplemental results issues.
• Saves your work so you only have to deep crawl a site once.

And a whole lot more.

How to Use the Supplemental Results Detector

1. First, look at the "total site PageRank" percentage. By increasing that number, you're re-routing more PageRank to your supplemental pages instead of letting it flow out to other domains. I aim for 80%+, but you may feel comfortable with a much lower percentage.
2. Make a list of URLS in Google's main index by running an inurl:www.domain.com search. Look at the results for those pages. You want a high internal PageRank percentage and raw PageRank value as high as possible. To increase the internal PageRank percentage, add more internal links to the page. You can yank out some external links or nofollow them, but I'd avoid that if possible for various reasons.”

Apparently, its so simple a caveman can install it. Its not the greatest invention since sliced bread but nevertheless a helpful tool to stimulate flow.
