How do I go back to my earliest ancestors?

When looking at my profile, or a family member's profile, specifically under Statistics, how do I go back beyond 5,000 ancestors? My profile says I've got over 20,000 ancestors on Geni, but I can't get back to the earliest.

  I would like a way to find the earliest ancestor of any person, whoever it may be.

  I'd suggest looking at HistoryLink for Geni.  It can graph 10 generations and it has an option to search your history for notable or historic profiles based on projects.
