How does the hack determing the longevity percentage? Does it go by member number? Or find the oldest join date and compare everyone else to that?

By default, the activity hack counts the first 4 posts in forums where posts count for each day.

All of the activity hack controls can be accessed from

Admin CP->vBulletin Options->Activity Hack

(If you change numbers, be sure to perform the Refresh User Activity operation from the Update Counters screen, otherwise users' activity will be displayed wrong for the rest of the day)

Longevity is based off of the join date of the user with the oldest join date, the current date, and the join date of the user in question. If you have members with falsified join dates (before the start of the boards), this could be an issue. If the oldest user joined a year ago, and a member joined 6 months ago, then that member would be displayed as having longevity of 50%.
