How can someone have over a 100% best answers?

So I saw this account http://answers.yahoo.com/activity?show=HN3FTFHAE74... and he had way over a 100% best answers. Is this just showing up like that for me? Is it a glitch (maybe something to do with the new format), or something else? I've heard it can happen when an answer is removed after it's chosen as best answer but that still doesn't explain how he got to these percentages.

    Very few Answers community they have more then 100% best answer, it possible when your best answer of question were deleted. But at this time that is a glitch, it not just first case in purple layout happened a lots.

    That can happen example a person answers 5 questions gets 5 best answers

    one question is reported and deleted thus this person will have 5 Best answers still but with only 4 answered
