A rank is a bucket, not an exact position: "Top 10K" means among the 10,000 most visited origins. It measures reach in Chrome, not visits, so it is not Similarweb traffic.

How the authority score is calculated

The score is the average of two parts, each from 0 to 100:

For this domain: rank part 71.0 (web graph rank 3,436 of 133,241,980), link part 58.4 (12,225 referring domains), average 64.7, rounded to 65.

It is consistent across all 120 million domains in the data, so it is good for ranking and filtering lists. It is not Moz Domain Authority or Ahrefs Domain Rating. Referring domains count other domains that link to this one, not individual backlinks; no list of linking pages is included.
