Dear Henry,
the first time I used the Agency Ratings service it showed perfectly well. This morning all I get is a white-blue table with all the data, but in the ratings column I only get \"Ratings:3\" or whatever, ossia, the number of voting pros, but not the very AVERAGE SCORE it is given. This makes it useless. Why so? Is this a temporary bug?
Thanks, Flavio

Prosit!
I have already joined free mailing lists about agency ratings. They prove to be quite helpful.
Have a nice year.
