The Data score on Reddit profile APIs

This score, out of 100, shows how much of an account's profile a provider's call returns. We ask for each account's profile by the account's username. For each account, we count the parts the answer held. We divide that count by the number of parts any provider's answer held for that account. Then we average the results over all accounts. Each account counts the same. An account the call didn't find counts as 0. We compare a provider that ran on fewer accounts with the other providers on those 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.
