Hi Doug,

I'm glad you like the data we provide after claiming your app.

The recognizable things like the 5-star ratings and market comments of
course come directly from Google.
However, the thumbs-up / down reviews are posted by AppBrain users,
and the phone models, countries,
hotness graph etc. you can see on the developer dashboard are derived
from the usage of apps and our site
by our users. (After we aggregate it and filter it to not reveal any
privacy details of our users).

Best regards,

Mathijs for the AppBrain team.
