I believe the 1-100 is a measure of percentage, not the actual bit value for the alpha channel (or whatever they are doing there). 100 would then correspond to 255 (if I do not have it backwards). If you cannot use a decimal value for blendLevel then I think you are stuck with 100 levels. Is it easy to discern the difference between 50% and 51%? If not, the point is moot.
