Yeah, I don’t know what to make of this poll. My best guess is that only people who like the post bothered to read this far into the comments, so most everyone who bothered to vote is in favor of it. (Also, I wish there was a “This really doesn’t warrant a regular thread at all” option.)
My current intent is to keep posting them weekly until & unless two in a row get less than twenty comments, or until they end up getting negative or zero karma—those seem like good indicators—at which point I’ll try bi-weekly.
I’d say more than odd; I’d say fishy. No votes for less of these threads at all? This is the most imbalanced poll ever conducted on this site! That smells fishy to me!
The results of this poll seem odd. Perhaps we should have some more options at the obviously favoured end of the scale?
“I would like a Diary thread twice a week”.
Don’t vote for this post as a poll, this is a meta-meta-comment.

Exposure bias—people who don’t like Diary, did not read this article, and did not participate in the poll.
Problem solved?
I was quite surprised as well. My personal vote would be for once a month. But I’m not very quick to call foul.
