Here is a social attitudes survey, via 
huinare
I found this somewhat hilarious, because it kept asking questions in the form 'Our country' or 'We' without taking into account that the facts about'our country' or 'we' are going to be dramatically different depending on which country / 'we' is involved.
It concluded:
"Radicalism 72
Socialism 18.75
Tenderness 40.625
These scores indicate that you are a moderate progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a liberated atheist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a pragmatic attitude towards humanity in general.
Your attitudes towards economics appear laissez-faire capitalist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as libertarian.
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a centrist with few strong opinions."
I have few strong opinions! I am pretty sure that anyone who has met me for more than about 20 seconds would be somewhat amazed by this verdict. I think what they mean is, I can instantly come up with two diametrically-opposed scenarios for almost any question. The ratings for 'socialism' surprised me a bit too!

LOL. Yeah, I've given up all hope of making sense of these shifty weird rules.

These scores indicate that you are a moderate progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a university professor. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a pragmatic attitude towards humanity in general.
Your attitudes towards economics appear neither committedly capitalist nor socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a political centrist.
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a devoted egalitarian with several strong opinions.
This concludes our analysis; we hope you found your results accurate, useful, and interesting."
Deeply flawed, as is the justification (Hans Eysenck worked this out after a lifetime's research so it must be authoritative).
I'm impressed by your magnificent exact-middle-of-the-road socialism!

Your attitudes towards economics appear laissez-faire capitalist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as libertarian.
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a centrist with few strong opinions."
It seems to be broadly closer for me.
I tend to think of those things as not going together but I suppose that is because I immediately think of examples of situations where they haven't, rather than how they *should* be.
I have few strong opinions! I am pretty sure that anyone who has met me for more than about 20 seconds would be somewhat amazed by this verdict.
Ha. I'm thinking it might have to do with how frequently one picked the "agree/disagree strongly" options maybe? I agreed/disagreed stronly with a few of the options, and was told I had "a few" strong opinions.

"These scores indicate that you are a progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a university professor."
Oops! Clearly I have reverted to type. It worries me slightly that I didn't think my answers were particularly radical - more wishy-washy liberal...
Hmmm. Does that mean I'm officially a socially permissive tree hugging hippy? How very cliched...
