[HumanChemistry101]

To study the "hotness" of a given human interaction, we must view the process as a chemical reaction between two or more molecules (people). Physical heats (body) are generally categorized as "enthalpic" factors, i.e. symmetry, averageness, complexion, etc., and neurological heats (mind) generally relate to "entropic" factors, i.e. organizational aspects. In the human chemical bond, a 5-to-1 ratio of attraction-to-repulsion tends to characterized long-term stable marriage bonds.

Yes, you're on the right path. In the human case, however, the model is scaled up, such that people are "molecules", comprised of 26-types of atoms, which react on a surface (surface chemistry). For the history of this logic, read:

Eoht(dot)info, article: Human molecule

In the human, the deciding electron valencies that have important electronegativity preferences (needs) are the hydro-carbon atoms (fatty-acids) of the mind.

In short, as to the sexiest man alive, the statement signifies that, according to People magazine, more women alive would what to have sex with so-and-so man. In a chemical sense, such a man would be considered as a "highly activated" (reactive) chemical species; as compared to other inert species. It is like comparing an inert Nobel gas atom, such as Neon (Ne), with a highly reactive atom, such as oxygen (O); thus concluding that more atoms want to react (have sex with) oxygen than neon.
