The base rules are scored using a process that attempts to maximize
spam hits while minimizing false positives. They are geared toward a
user who has the default spam threshold of 5 points.
The percentages would probably vary significantly depending on who
runs them and what types of spam/ham the

I think such a thing would be very difficult. Because scoring is mostly
dependant on your personal configuration of SA. The more plugins you use, the
higher the score will be. And that is independant of spam probability.
