I like this a lot because it's great for comparison, but based on the information given on the site, wouldn't LIST and WHAQ be of lower difficulty (.04 and -.38) or are the HSNCT questions (4.67) just a much higher difficulty?

HSNCT is high school nationals, so yes, they are a degree of difficulty higher. LIST, WHAQ, and other sets close to zero are the best approximations of "regular difficulty" that you'd play throughout the year.

EDIT: WHAQ packets too. I don't think I saw any in the hsqb database.

All of them are also on the http://www.quizbowlpackets.com link that David Reinstein posted earlier so you don't have to specifically save these links.
