I got a 10

Mine is a minus number.
Is that bad?

I asked the same question to my parked rep, and all he could tell me is that my score is a 10, When asked if that is good or bad, he didn't know. My RPC was reduced by half after stats were finalized, and the only reason given for the reduction was "TQ Scoring" When the Traffic quality was nearly 100% type in.

TQS is like PR from 1 to 10 but not a logarythmic scale.

For that what I know the TQS is important but not specially for the revenue.
If your score is low the revenue can decrease up to -2,5% and on the other side if your TQS is high it increase your revenue up to +2,5%.

This information is from some month ago when the TQS was new at all. But may be the things changed, there was 2 TQS-Updates to now.
The TQS is weekly calculated and on every thursday it change (or not).

How I said, that`s only that what I know about that, mean what I was able to research in the last month.

If someone knows more or if I am wrong, please correct me.

I think a low score can hurt but a high score does not seem to have any advantage.

Can the rating be used to cancel or suspend accounts?
Maybe the rating number is used to help identify fraud?

yes

It has to do with it, but fraud is fraud and not bad converting traffic.

It`s something like smartpricing at adsense.
