I just read about this; the reforming primeminister who served under Tsar and Holy Martyr Nikolai II came in second. I forgot the name, but hopefully people can guess from that. Putin has said that he hoped to emulate the peacemaking capabilities of this man. Lenin came in at sixth.

Apparently the Communists in Russia think that the poll was "massaged" so that Stalin didn't win; apparently he lead early on. As Alexander says, it's perhaps best not to invest too much in the result of these polls.
