How is the match percentage calculated?
It measures how much of Alexa's job a tool can take over: shared core category, how many of the same use cases it covers and how similar its feature set is. Popularity and ratings never change the percentage; they only break ties in the order. Lists are recomputed nightly and reviewed by editors for the most-visited tools.
