I think clearer output would be:

Crafty                        : 161 (+141,=  6,- 14), 89.4 %
SOS                           : 100 (+  1,=  4,- 95), 97.0 %
Yace                          :  61 (+ 13,=  2,- 46), 77.0 %

And gosh, that is a terrible result for SOS.... are you absolutely certian
something wasn't totally out of whack?
