OK, here we go (Mathematica and me ;-) ):
Clear[a];
a[1] = 1;
ac = Compile[{{k, _Integer}},
Block[{d = Length[FactorInteger[k]],
  an1 = a /@ Range[k - 1],
  i = 2},
    While[MemberQ[an1, i] || GCD[k, i] =!= 1 || Length[FactorInteger[i]] =!= d,
        i++]; i],
{{d | i, _Integer}, {an1, _Integer, 1}}];
a[n_Integer /; n > 1] := a[n] = ac[n]

m = 1; r = {{1, 1}};
For[i = 1, i <= 5000, i++*If[a[i] > m, AppendTo[r, {i, m = a[i]}]]]; r

{{1, 1}, {2, 3}, {4, 5}, {6, 35}, {12, 55}, {18, 65}, {24, 77}, {30, 1001}, 
{60, 1309},
   {90, 1463}, {120, 1547}, {150, 1729}, {180, 1771}, {210, 46189}, {420, 
55913}, {630, 62491},
   {840, 70499}, {1050, 75361}, {1260, 78793}, {1470, 81719}, {1680, 84227}, 
{1890, 89947},
   {2100, 95381}, {2310, 2800733}, {4620, 2993887}}

and isn't this:

First[{{1, 1}, {2, 3}, {4, 5}, {6, 35}, {12, 55}, {18, 65}, {24, 77}, {30, 
1001}, {60, 1309},
   {90, 1463}, {120, 1547}, {150, 1729}, {180, 1771}, {210, 46189}, {420, 
55913}, {630, 62491},
   {840, 70499}, {1050, 75361}, {1260, 78793}, {1470, 81719}, {1680, 84227}, 
{1890, 89947},
   {2100, 95381}, {2310, 2800733}, {4620, 2993887}}\[Transpose]]/3


{1/3,2/3,4/3,2,4,6,8,10,20,30,40,50,60,70,140,210,280,350,420,490,560,630,700,770,1540}

interesting?
