Many search engines use a number to track the relevance of the document to the query, using TF-IDF, fuzzy matching, vectors, or other algorithms. This is usually a number between 0 and 100 (or a percentage), between 1 and 10, between 0 and 1. Some search engines always give their best matches the top score and rate the others compared to that, while other engines score documents compared to a theoretical perfect document. In all cases, this works better with a long and sophisticated query than a short one. Many search engines treat retrieval and scoring as the same thing: documents which do not match the query are simply ranked at 0.
The score bar at the left of each row in the Result List indicates how closely that item matches the search criteria. The wider the score bar, the more relevant it is to the search criteria.
Search engines usually arrange search results from the most relevant to the least relevant (as determined by the search engine's algorithm ). In order to rank documents, the search engine assigns a score to each page and those with the highest scores are listed first. Most search engines simply give the maximum score to the most relevant document and score all other relevant documents relative to that document. Others compare all documents to a theoretically perfect document. The score of a web page therefore refers to its relevance as perceived by a specific search engine.

Scores are scale scores, generally estimated using Item Response Theory (IRT) by modeling the probability of answering a question in a certain way as a mathematical function of proficiency or skill. A set scale is created (e.g., 0–500 on the National Assessment of Educational Progress), with a set median and standard deviation. The results on the assessment are then related to the median of the scale such that almost all results are within two standard deviations of the median. (See Scale score.)
