Creepy flash eyes, yes.
This may be the first component for a Mii-esque furry avatar creation tool thingy!
Or, it may be just another project that never really gets off the ground.
** EDIT **
Uploaded a new version with more controls for pupil and iris stuff.

I really love stuff like this! I've done eye cursor tracking and procedural drawing before, but I've never seen them put together so beautifully. These eyes are so expressive! And the interface is quite easy-to-use for the amount of variation that's possible. Well done!
A little while ago I was working on an MSN Activities project for work (they're little applets that you can open as part of a "Windows Live Messenger" chat). It turns out you can make them with Flash, and without needing the applets approved. ^_- So immediately I was thinking that having a customizable and interactive avatar portrait as an add-on to chat would be very cool - especially for the fur community.
If you're interested in developing this in such a direction, please send me a note and I'll get you the info you need to make it work. I'd even like to help, if I wouldn't be getting in the way. ^_-

Hmm, can it see the text you're posting? Like, would it be possible to scan for common emoticons and adapt the face to them?
If this doesn't end up progressing into a more full-fledged avatar thingy, I may have to look at that... but for now, I'll keep going ahead.

From what I know, it should be pretty easy to have it receive and process the IM text, although I never implemented that aspect in the project I was working on. It can also send data independent of the text stream, so if you wanted to do more sophisticated puppeteering like what you can do here with moving the eyes, you could do that directly in the applet beside your IM window and have the face update in real time on the other person's screen.
Like you said, though, it's not something that needs to be implemented now. If you come up with an avatar tool you're really happy with, the decision whether to port it over to other forms can always be made later.
I'm looking forward to seeing the next stage of this!

Really cool! Great work: please continue!
*evil grin* I look forward to a full-body version, with sliders for breast size/number/location, penis length & style (canine/equine/human), knot diameter, etc.... ;)
I love how the interaction is real-time: features change *while* you move the sliders, rather than once you release the mouse button. Occasionally, a slider would continue to track my mouse pointer after I'd released the button, but maybe I just have a crappy mouse. :)
EDIT: no, I think it may be a Flash glitch...the sliders are sticking *way* more often than my crappy mouse can be responsible for. Anyone else having this trouble?
I also like how the eyes follow the mouse pointer, though that can *sometimes* make the irises difficult to see, depending on iris size and eye shape, as the irises may disappear into the corners of the eyes while you're working the sliders.
Now all it needs is a sensor that detects when you click directly on the eyeball, and then it closes that eye tightly and makes a frowny face. :)

This is really really really really cool! It works fantastic, very smooth, and with some well-implemented customizable options!
This looks like a great start to a character-creation/generator. The level of detail you could provide as options for a character are mind-boggling.... perhaps intimidating, thinking about actually trying to fit all that in. ^^; Being able to change body size/shape/type would be incredible, if you got that far. In any case, even if it gets no farther than this, it looks fantastic.
