1. what does the 'percentile' represent in the challenge results?
2. why does my profile say I've cast no votes, when in actuality I have cast over 200-300?

The end.

1.On a scale of 0%-100% where you place on that scale. Basically tells you what percent of the people scored below you or above you.

2.Stats are computed after midnight on Mondays and Wednesdays.Don't forget! You must vote on at least 20% of the photographs for your votes to be counted.

Just to add to this:

1. If there are 100 entries and you get 64th, you're percentile is 36%.
If there are 150 entries and you get 64th, you're percentile is 58%.

2. I think that if you're voting on a current challenge, those stats aren't computed until afterwards...but I could be wrong on that one...
