The Data score on Reddit post APIs

This score, out of 100, shows how much of an account's posts the call returns. Each call returns the first page of the account's posts. For each account, we count the posts the call returned. We also check which of the parts we score those posts hold. Then we average each account's result over all accounts. If the call returned no post for an account, that account counts as 0. Some providers may run on fewer accounts. We compare each such provider with the other providers on the same accounts. A provider can't score higher by running only on easy accounts. We lower the score when we test the call on fewer accounts than the benchmark has.
