 Since you can control the scores by setting the score for one
 or several tests, I just don't see how this is in any way meaningful.

 Most users adjust one or more scores to get rid of spam
 that creep in under the radar.  There is no reason to suspect
 that exact same spam would get the same score for anyone
 else.

How about this one, actually there are two like this:

I can see though that I'm going to have to make an adjustment to my auto

The SARE_FORGED_* rules are a good way to score over 100 
points quickly.
When I first installed SARE I had some very high-scoring *ham* (hitting
SARE_FORGED_CITI. The SARE people don't work in the banking sector, it
seems), and, as a result, some crazy AWL scores afterwards. 
I've removed
the SARE forged rules now altogether, and most of the remaining spam
scores under 50 (just one 52.9 yesterday).

Nope, no ninja in the bank industry. The black uniforms scare the tellers :)

However if you send the FP to us, we will try to fix it.

Nope no citibank here, just making a generic rule like the rest, if you give
me some info on what's wrong with it, I'll gladly fix it.  Just after I said
these rules havn't been touched in months, look what happens ;)
Thanks,

Bah.  I've seen a few that scored ~55 with stock 2.64 scores.  With
SpamCopURI, and custom scores, they jumped to ~80.

I *think* I found one that scored ~80 on the stock 2.64 scores once, but
I'm not certain.

One weekend while I was particularly bored, I started putting together
an uberspam that would trip as many stock 2.64 rules as possible.  I got
about a third of the way through the rules before stopping, and the
score was pushing 300.  g

I hate to say it, but I've seen scores over 1000.0. All you need to do
is include a GTUBE :)

USER_IN_BLACKLIST will also jack it up quite a bit with a +100 score.

GTUBE and blacklists aside, my highest spam score in recent history
(past 4 weeks) was 45.74:

score=45.74, required 5, autolearn=spam, AB_URI_RBL 1.00, BAYES_99 5.40,
DCC_CHECK 1.00, DRUGS_ERECTILE 1.00, HTML_70
_80 0.10, HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_04 1.00, HTML_MESSAGE 0.10,
INFO_GREYLIST_NOTDELAYED -0.01, JP_URI_RBL 1.00, LOCAL_RCVD_HELO_XIP
1.50, MIME_HTML_ONLY 0.32, MIME_HTML_ONLY_MULTI 1.10, NO_DNS_FOR_FROM
1.65, OB_URI_RBL 2.10, RAZOR2_CF_RANGE_51_100 0.20, RAZOR2_CHECK 1.05,
RCVD_IN_CHINA_KR 2.50, RCVD_IN_DSBL 0.71, RCVD_IN_NJABL_PROXY 2.34,
RCVD_IN_SORBS_MISC 0.00, RCVD_IN_XBL 4.92, SARE_RAND_2V 1.50,
SPAMCOP_URI_RBL 3.00, SUBJ_VIAGRA 4.10, VIAGRA_ONLINE 4.06, WS_URI_RBL
2.10, X_MESSAGE_INFO 2.00

But I tend to lean towards lowering rule scores from their defaults. I
tend to find some SARE rules, etc are a bit overly aggressive in scoring
for my tastes.

Unfortunately I just purged the spamtraps, but that's what log files are 
for.  Here's the highest one from this week:

Score: 63.173
BAYES_99
BIZ_TLD
DOMAIN_RATIO
FORGED_IMS_HTML
FORGED_IMS_TAGS
FORGED_MUA_IMS
FORGED_YAHOO_RCVD

HTML_FORMACTION_MAILTO
HTML_IMAGE_ONLY_20

HTML_MESSAGE
LOCAL_SURBL_MULTI
MIME_HTML_ONLY

RCVD_DOUBLE_IP_SPAM
RCVD_HELO_IP_MISMATCH
RCVD_IN_DSBL
RCVD_IN_NJABL_PROXY
RCVD_IN_NJABL_RELAY
RCVD_IN_SORBS_HTTP
RCVD_NUMERIC_HELO
SUBJ_ILLEGAL_CHARS
URIBL_OB_SURBL
URIBL_SBL
URIBL_WS_SURBL
The only custom rule in there is LOCAL_SURBL_MULTI, which adds an extra 
3 points if 3 or more SURBLs fire.  So technically this should only have 
been 60.173.
