Good idea. I'd imagine set belongs here. You might find a few more pickings on this list.

Set has 87, not bad! I like the term polysemy.

Perhaps this list might also be of use to you...

Pfft, Wordie's top 100 is much more interesting than that list.

Don't you think the word interesting is just so interesting?

Being common is a little different then being highly polysemous. For the list I'm using weirdnets definitions, so it's going to be a little off but still somewhat relevant.

It's pretty interesting I think, I imagine if you plot average frequency of words vs. # of wordnet definitions (which I might just do this weekend) you'll see a very low number for the most common words (determiners and prepositions), with the most polysemous words coming after that, followed by a drastic drop off of number of senses.

I'd be interested in a graph.
In the mean time, some polysemous Marx jokes to entertain:
Groucho: How would you like a job at the mint?
Chico: Mint? I don't like mint. What other flavors you got?
I've got a good mind to go out and join a club and beat you over the head with it.
