The Score is a weighted average which gives more emphases to words found earlier in the list. See weights.tab for the current weights. The exact weights are subject to change.
First is: (Total Found First On List)/(Total)*100, 1-5 is: (Total Found 1st - 5th)/(Total)*100, etc...

About The Data

The test data used is the same data set found in the original tests. It tries to focus on really bad misspellings.
