Rounding error
Edit - In any survey or statistic, there is what is called Rounding Error. It is when the numbers used to calculate the statistics are rounded. For example, if you have three groups, one is %50.3, %20.4, and %29.3, those numbers are rounded to 50, 20, and 29, totalling on 99.

Hidding as part of both the 90% and 9%.
Since it won't show any decimals you would need a perfect account, like 0% Best and 100% others or 50/50

If the process was done by humans it could be chalked up to human error.
But since averages are generated by a computer, one could only think that this computer has a noir sense of humor.
Or the computer is the return of Hal.

The other 1% of what?
If you are talking about best answers, you might have just answered so many questions that have not yet been picked for best answer so you precentage would go down.
I hope that is what you needed?

If you're talking about best answers and other answers, I think it is a rounding error as mentioned above.

The system does not do fractions, so you may have actually 6.25% best Answers and 93.75% overall answers
