The numbers on this page are derived from each of the various metrics that go into this site�s rating/ranking system. Most of the rest of this site uses straight 1 to 32 rankings. This page, however, ties the actual values for each metric to a 0 to 100 scale (with further modifications described below) where the best value for each metric is 100, the worst is 0, and the rest are distributed between 0 and 100 in proportion to the minimum and maximum. The twelve elements listed are categorized by importance, (1, 2, or 3) and thus divided by that number. So for example, if a category 1 element is the highest for a given metric and therefore 100, the number here would be 100. If it were a category 3, then that 100 would be 33.3. These categories are indicated by the superscripts next to the metrics' names.
