"Well, Strong Sad, it means they really like you."

"All up ons" is a colloquial usage describing popularity. As Strong Bad explained to Strong Sad, "It means they really like you". However, the phrase appears in many places in the Homestar Runner body of work that don't have anything to do with this usage.

The term is commonly used in modern American black culture to describe someone who is sexually attracted to another.
