It may have played weaker opponents, but if you look at the winning percentage
comapred to other programs who have played these weaker engines, then you wil
also notice that CM6K percentage is higher, just have a look at Fritz. Yes it
may drop down, but on the other hand, it is number one now, whos to say it will
not stay number one.
