After clicking on album title in nowplaying (could be also via album title search) there's note such as:
* Search score (relevance): 944.91% *
Which is wrong and should be 94.49%

Nope; it should actually be 944.91%!
It's weird, so I might change it to not showing percentages, but it works as following:
The search engine searches and tries to match multiple fields; let's take for example a search trying to match artist and title (for example searching TENMON).
Now let's take the fictional songs:
TENMON - some song
TENMON - ten months
Artist - blabla feat. TENMON
Now the first song would match 100% on artist, and probably 0% or maybe a bit more on the title, giving a relevance of 100% (or rather 1.0)
The second song would match 100% on artist, and probably around 90% on title (since there is a space on ten mon, and some extra letters), adding up to 190% (or 1.9)
The third song would match 0% on artist, but 80 or 90% or so on title (since there is some extra data around TENMON). so the relevance would be 0.8 or 0.9 or so.
Because of this, the relevance can go up to some high values; which might seem more weird with percentages ;) I might change it later; but at the very least it's not a bug ^_^

Ya this is wierd though cause sometimes i search for an anime ed/op by exact anime name but the song i want is at the bottom of list and there are a bunch of songs that have very high percentages whereas my song is at ~12%. I think exact matches need to be much higher priority than partial matches.
