Posting by request. Since Billboard's website does not show archives of Adult Top 40 year-end charts prior to 2006, here are the lists what were published in the magazine.
Notes: 2001 was the only year in which the full top 40 was published. Prior and 2005 only the top 25 was published. For 2002-2004 only the top 20 was published. If anyone has the rest of these charts, feel free to add on.
PS. If not in the proper section, feel free to move.
