While ".rb" suggests a "Ruby source file," ".agi" suggests nothing.

You are confusing a language with a protocol. An AGI is a program that 
complies with the AGI protocol. It can be written in any language that 
reads from stdin and writes to stdout. I don't know of any language that 
fails this requirement.

Ruby is not a popular language for writing AGIs, at least on this list. 
Most AGI compliant programs are written in Perl, PHP, c, or shell.
