Movei's rating looks a bit optimistic to me.

Some suggestions for further entries, mostly oldies ( no idea if they support
autoplayer for most of them):

Virtual Chess II, Genius 2 (_really_ old, won't finish on one of the two last
ranks though I bet, one beer ;) ? ), MChess 7.1 ( I suspect some bugs with MCP 8
currently) and Yace of course. In case you want to have another wild card
amateur entry you could try PostModernist - I think you might like it.

Best amateur missing might be Aristarch, that doesn't seem to play in many user
tournaments.

When it is about professionals the strongest one missing is probably Gandalf.
