The [url=http://simdynasty.com/depth.jsp?teamid=110805]Colorado Hamiltonians[/url] of the Josh Gibson League currently have a [url=http://simdynasty.com/leaguestadiums.jsp?leagueid=370&mode=list].838 Park Factor[/url] through 99 games of the current season. I know that it is a very very very new addition, but what are the other extremes that you have seen?

i have no idea what to make of these numbers yet...im only in dynasty leagues so it's only been 21 games and just looking at one league I see numbers from 0.49 to 2.242. I'm guessing those won't last...will the data be cumulative across multiple seasons as long as the dimensions don't change?

Data is only relevant to the current season, as far as I know. Numbers right at 1.00 indicate that the team scores/allows the same number of runs at home as on the road. Greater than 1.00 indicates a higher score at home (for runs allowed and run created). Less than 1.00 indicates a lower score at home (for runs allowed plus runs created).

I tend to try to build the league's best lineup (or close to it) and play in a huge park, so I would expect most of my park factors to be under 1.00. The team that I linked above has the 2nd lowest home and away ERA, but we score more runs on the road than any other team in the league while we are league average at home (9th).
