FWIW, top 20 was necessary for mine. The bolding was a brilliant move. Several of my accounts were ranked 10-20, but popped out due to the bolding.

What does the bolding indicate?

As far as I’m concerned, it’s the killer feature of the app. The top 20 results may be noisy, but the bolded results have a signal to noise ratio close to infinity.
The precision of the bolded results looks like maybe 30% to me. Significantly better than the non-bolded, but nowhere near perfect precision.

Of my top 20, 19 are bold, all are above 0.6, and I have no alts.

I have 7 bolded names (0.53-0.62) in the top 20 list, and none are alts of mine.

The funny thing is that I thought of it while eating dinner last night :)
My results have 5 bolded users in my top 20, and I have 0 alt accounts.
