"Someone should make a thread about the "Big Five" or OCEAN model of personality, which has a stronger empirical basis and is widely accepted in psychology"

OCEAN model: http://www.outofservice.com/bigfive/results/?oR=0.975&cR=0.556&eR=0.156&aR=0.528&nR=0.531&y=1980&g=m

Openness to experience
Conscientiousness
Extraversion
Agreeableness
Neuroticism
(I was respectively in the 95th, 41st, 3rd, 22nd, and 49th percentiles.)

This is an up-and-coming model that augments and may replace OCEAN, the HEXACO model: http://hexaco.org/scaledescriptions.html
Honesty/Humility
Emotionality (similar to "Neuroticism")
eXtraversion
Agreeableness
Conscientiousness
Openness to experience

The creators of the scale allow the 60-item and 100-item versions to be downloaded for free, but the 200-item version, which best measures the four facets of each of the six scales, is only available on request and only intended for academic work; the model also includes an "interstitial" facet called Altruism, which is most closely related to H,E, and A.

This test measures the 24 non-interstitial facets of the HEXACO model, using 240 items from the International Personality Item Pool: http://psychometrics.akresgr.org/personalitytest1

These are my results:

That same site also has a test based on OCEAN model: http://psychometrics.akresgr.org/personalitytest2

Extraversion: 30
-enthusiasm 25, assertiveness 35
Neuroticism: 56
-volatility 37, withdrawal 75

-intellect 93, openness 93
Agreeableness: 70.5
-compassion 68, politeness 73
Conscientiousness: 40
-industriousness 42, orderliness 38

Finally, here are my self-reported scores, rescaled from its 1-5 scale to a 0-100 scale, from the official HEXACO-100, which seems to encourage more extreme responses by using only a 5-point rather than a 7-point scale and using fewer items than the one above, but at least also measures the Altruism facet.
Honesty/Humility: 90.625
-sincerity 100, fairness 87.5, greed-avoidance 75, modesty 100
Emotionality: 53.125
