In my experience: stumbleupon.com has the higest potential to generate traffic - if you're not already extremely famous.
Reddit.com is ok. Digg.com is good only if you can make it to their front page (which would require *atleast* 50-100 diggs from your community fairly quickly.) But with stumbleupon.com - you can get a lot of traffic with just a handful of votes. So do check them out.
This may help: Its a plugin for vbulletin:

Thanks Ankesh,
I had a look at the plugin for vBulletin... I guess what I did was "create" my own plugin (though I didn't realize that's what I was doing at the time). However, it shouldn't be too hard to adapt their one... I'll be looking into it!
Also, regarding stumbleupon - I'll be looking into that too!
Thanks for the tips, Ankesh! :)
Cheers,
Dien
