Isn't Greenpeep an alpha-beta searcher, not UCT/MC?

Since Go ranks are based an handicap stones, and 100 ELO points implies a
particular winning percentage, it would be an unlikely coincidence if 1 rank
is 100 ELO points.  Any web site that claims this must be wrong :) and
should have little credibility.
