Hello Illes,

The first recommendation is to use the most recent version of the PhyloP data - 
contained in both hg18 and hg19 under the composite track heading 
"Conservation". In hg18, this includes 44 species and in hg19 46 species.

Instructions for rsync or ftp are in the README files along with the data at 
these locations:

http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg19/phyloP46way/
http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg18/phyloP44way/

Please note that scores are pre-computed based on logical species groupings. 
In this case, placentalMammals, primates, and vertebrates (with some special 
subsets of these group for chromX in hg19). 

If you want to generate score for pairwise or other groupings, please 
see the track description's Methods about the PHAST package 
(http://compgen.bscb.cornell.edu/phast/). The general idea would be 
to use the (filtered) MAF data as input and generate the scores yourself.

If you need any help with kent source tree utilities please let us know,

Jennifer
