That's the upvote ratio. You can test it with a fresh post with no votes, downvote & refresh to see the change. And then upvote and repeat.
Upvotes ratio. Let score be S, upvotes U, downvotes D and ratio R. Then:
R=U/(U+D) and S=U-D
D=U/R-U and D=U-S
U/R-U=U-S
2U-U/R=S
U(2-1/R)=S
U(2R-1)/R=S
U=SR/(2R-1)
Your current, as of typing this comment, 83% with score of 4 means:
U=83%*4/(2*83%-1)=332%/(166%-100%)=332/66≈5
You got 5 upvotes and 1 downvote
