Out of curiosity!

Some minor questions of mine, not really fundamental, just out of curiosity!
Do you know the answers anyway? :)

Silly Curiosity of Mine #1. How are the "Compatibility" ratings calculated exactly?
For instance on the profile page of a fellow user I see
Movies ... 84 % (113 items)
TV ... 84 % (45 items)
Why 84%? Why 113 and 45 items? Can I see the list of those items BTW?
There is a hint with a general explanation, but not much detail:
"Compatibility ratings show how closely you rate items to other people, if it says 'none' you haven't rated enough of the same items yet."

Silly Curiosity of Mine #2. Is there a reason for another Rating in Reviews? Shouldn't it it be the same as the movie rating by the user who writes the review?

Silly Curiosity of Mine #3. Why does it always say "Total reviews: 0" in the Charts, while it's been a couple months since I wrote my first review?

Silly Curiosity of Mine #4. Why do some Listal forums show 0 threads, while there are threads in them? Restricted access?

The only one I know the answer to is #4 which is yes, because of restricted access. Users can only see the issue reports that they reported. Only mods can see everything.

#2 I think there might be some coding issues that keep review ratings fixed and separate. However, it is nice to be able to re-review a movie with a different rating. So, you can have two reviews of a film with two different ratings.

1) The items is the total number of items you have both rated, the percentage is how close you have rated these items with the other person. You can't see a list of those items but that will be in the next site version.

2) This separate review rating will probably removed in the next site version since it's doesn't serve much purpose.

3) Which page are you referring to?

4) You can only see the threads/reports you have created in these forums.
