I agree that you should just ignore ratings on your mods, I think people are just happy to actually find something that might do what they want, I doubt they will worry about 4 vs 5 stars. (And BOP5, I thought you might have been talking about yourself, but a quick look shows that you still have quite a few 5 star averages).

If it were a problem then one possibility might be to use a better algorithm other than just the average of the votes, but I doubt anyone cares enough to bother.
