Super Idol

If we look at what robin said...

"American Idol does Super Bowl type ratings numbers"

If you define 'type' as "exact numbers", then the super bowl does better. *(not supported by definition of word)

If you define 'type' as "unprecedented high numbers", then they are both the same type. **

**American Heritage Dictionary
type (tīp) n.

A number of people or things having in common traits or characteristics that distinguish them as a group or class.
The general character or structure held in common by a number of people or things considered as a group or class.

I understood Robin to mean the later of the two understandings!

Robins not wrong!
