I did some checking...
The scores in the file range from .2 to 5, with distribution:
Tiles   Score
13      0
13793   0.2
659     0.3
450     0.4
380     0.5
340     0.6
264     0.7
347     0.8
148     0.9
211     1
25239   1.1
1       3
1       4
1       5

I would assume that the higher score gives a higher degree of accurateness. So 
I 
had png2tileinfo make a map from all XY's with a score of 1.1 and higher.

A lot is correct, but large amounts of low X/Y tiles are being marked as land 
or 
mixed. Low X/Y means northwest of Canada/Alaska, and to my knowledge there is 
only sea there.

So I would not use this list as a guide for updating the map.
