Does anyone know where the find a recent USCF ratings distribution chart? I can't find one any more recent than one made in November of 2004.
And you can get top player lists here: http://main.uschess.org/component/option,com_top_players/Itemid,371/
I hope this is what you were looking for.
I appreciate your help, but only Zebano understood what I was asking for. I'm not talking about the top 100 lists or the msa look up; i already know how to find those- I'm talking about the ratings distribution- basically it says what percentile you are based on your rating, as well as how many people are at a particular rating, and the average rating of both scholastic and adult players.
Ah, I think I found something: http://main.uschess.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=7437
