I've had this idea on what a monster is worth for years but the (will to use) technology hasn't been up to speed.
Every monster is assigned stats and abilities. These are set into stone. Each monster is also assigned an XP-value which represents how dangerous it is. Now, the XP-value is listed online and D&D players can vote to increase or decrease that number.
This will balance the XP with the actual danger level of the monster regardless of if the attacks sounds more effective than they actually are.
Some people will try to trick the system but in the end truth will win. It's a matter of how it's set up and the actual obscurity of D&D monster's XP-value. The designers' default XP-estimate will also be available.
When a monsters XP-value is off it will create an outcry at sites such as this and gamers will rush to set the record straight. As new tactics are developed fans will adjust the XP to accomodate for these advances.
