In 3.1.x and earlier:
Yes, the score is almost exactly the "weight" stored in the
db.wordlist file (the w: line).
The weight is essentially a sum of the *_factor appropriate to the
word multiplied by a factor for location (1000-1).
In 3.2 the issue is a bit different, but essentially the score is
calculated on-the-fly.
