What makes you think that Century is weaker? How do you define "stronger"?
Stronger in chess, stronger in playing comp-comp?
IMO nowadays the believe in comp-comp and representing their chess strength is
much too high. Personally I'd like to have accurate analysis, for playing even
Fritz2/3 is strong enough to bust me. But I am sure my positional and
strategical chess skills are much better. I lose "just" because I miss some
tactics, preferably in time trouble. So do you think I take Fritz2/3 for
analysis just because it beats me? Certainly not, may it be #1 in SSDF or
somewhere else.

My very personal opinion and experience is that the best analysis is provided by
Century, Shredder, both Tigers, Junior, Hiarcs and MCP where the first four are
slightly better.
