&lt;p&gt;The actually scale for the conversion of raw nick ratings cane found in the &amp;quot;About&amp;quot; section of this site. &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://truenicks.com/cs/blogs/truenicks/about.aspx"&gt;truenicks.com/.../about.aspx&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

That assignment is arbitrary, in general, but does it vary across services (along with the crosses considered as eligible data for computing the nick)? What does a nicking ratio/percentage have to be, in order to be assigned a particular letter grade? &lt;/p&gt;
