m = minimum number of ratings required for an item to appear in a 'top-rated' chart (currently 10).
AV = the site mean average rating.

Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some tracks can have several thousand ratings)
This track is rated in the top 12% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 78.5/100, a mean average of 80.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.4/100. The standard deviation for this track is 12.8.

Probably the most bittersweet experience I've ever had right here. Bizarre story (guy goes to friend's wedding, admits he has feelings for her, she admits she had felt the same but now there's nothing she can do, and they don't know if they can patch it up then but he's glad to have it off his chest) that somehow still fits into the albums fairly linear story. One doesn't have to experience that specific story to feel this, either, it really is applicable to any time you have to watch someone you have feelings for be with someone else.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
