The numbers produced by your script don't agree with my own
investigative spelunking through my own mailbox. What I found is that,
via 33 emails, I've given my Reviewed-by: to 133 patches[1]. If the
116 computed by your script is accurate, then that means that not all
of my Reviewed-by:'s made it into the project, which is believable.
Nevertheless, according to my own mailbox -- accounting for 133
patches -- I have almost certainly given an explicit Reviewed-by: to
all 116 of those patches your script found, which means the script
output should probably be "100% (116/116)". This mismatch between your
script output and my own investigation throws doubt upon the
script-generated tallies for other people, as well.

(Aside: I also gave another 37 explicit Reviewed-by:'s via another 7
emails[2], however, the authors of those series ended up re-rolling
after my Reviewed-by:, so I did not count those in the numbers I
presented above. There also have been several times when patch
submitters added my Reviewed-by: in error[3], though I don't think
those ever made it into the project.)
