missing tracks ratio

It calculates for a specified artist, a per record missing_tracks_ratio: The number of tracks none of the records of the user's collection contain, over the number of tracks in the record. A record with a 0% score is either already in the collection as one of its various releases, or all its tracks are contained by a set of other records in the collection. A record with a 100% score only contains tracks not present in any other record of the user's collection.
