The way I've built them, using the process described in Rapid Contextual Design, has been collaboratively with other designers (and sometimes other stakeholders). This incorporates a degree of reliability into the process, as the understanding of the data evolves towards a sort of consensus. I suppose you could have multiple groups build an affinity diagram off the same dataset and see how they compare if you are really concerned that the multiple groups interpret data in the same way, though I'm not sure you would want or need them to.
