The results are collected from the playchess.com server. They are calculated
automatically.

They are not for download as far as I know. I wish playchess.com would offer
such a download. It would be the best computer game database available.

It works something like this.

Take 10 people for example. They all have Shredder 9. These 10 people played 25
games each.

Person1 = 2 X 2.8 Ghz Xeon, custom book, hash 512mb. plays any time control.
 The result of each game.
Person2 = 4 X 2.0 Ghz Opteron, custom book, hash 512mb. plays 60+15's.
 The result of each game.
Person3 = 1 X 1.8 Ghz Opteron, Shredder 8 book, hash 192 mb. Plays 5+0's.
 The results of each game.
Person4 = 1 x 3.0 Ghz P4, Shredder 9 book, hash 128 mb. Play any time control
 The results of each game.
Person5 = 1 x 3.4 Ghz P4, Fritz 7 book, hash 96 mb. Plays 15+0.
 The results of each game.
Person6 = 1 x 2.4 Ghz Opteron, Fritz 8 book, hash 128 mb. Play any time control
 The results of each game.
Person7 = 2 x 3.0 Ghz Xeon, Shredder 9 book, hash 192 mb. Play any time control
 The results of each game.
Person8 = 2 x AMD2800, custom book, hash 64 mb. Plays only 3+0s
 The results of each game.
Person9 = 1 X 900 P3, Shredder 9 book, hash 48 mb. Plays 5+3's.
 The results of each game.
Person10 = 4 X 2.4 Ghz Opteron, custom book, hash 384 mb. Plays only 90+30's.

The results of each game averaged into the total.
example: 25 games have been played by each person.

Person1  ELO = 2580
Person2  ELO = 2570
Person3  ELO = 2560
Person4  ELO = 2550
Person5  ELO = 2590
Person6  ELO = 2620
Person7  ELO = 2610
Person8  ELO = 2600
Person9  ELO = 2630
Person10 ELO = 2640

2550+2560+2570+2580+2590+2600+2610+2620+2630+2640 / 10  or
the ELO RANGE average of the 250 games. ELO RANGE average = 2595 +/- 45.

#  Engine             N Games   ELO RANGE Avg.   ELO RANGE

1. Shredder 9         250        2595   +/-45    2550-2640

This is only if 250 games allow by the playchess.com to get ELO RANGE or ELO
RANGE Avg. For real, after 2000 games it gets an ELO RANGE Avg., after 5000
games it gets an ELO RANGE.

I hope this helps you,
