The analysis of authors includes total impact, number of diaries, and the average impact per diary.
The analysis of readers includes the
number of recommendations awarded, the number of authors recommended,
the number and percent of their recommendations on the most recommended list (conversion),
and a ratio reflecting how much better the recommendations they made matched
the top hit list than would the same number of random picks.
