The reason for this is that once a new entry has enough valid votes to enter the ranking, a small group of very high early scores could otherwise place them straight at or near #1. In practice, that often creates a backlash where some users vote much lower because they feel the entry is ranked too high too soon. The weighted ranking is designed to avoid that cycle by placing newer entries a bit more conservatively at first, while still allowing them to rank highly and rise further as more votes come in.
In this case, Mackenzie Gize has 108 votes, while Honey Dew has 70 votes. So even though Honey Dew’s displayed average is slightly higher, Mackenzie currently has a larger voting base behind her score, which gives her ranking more weight.
The system is designed this way to keep the top rankings more stable and less vulnerable to short-term swings. I understand why it can look confusing when the visible averages do not exactly align with the positions, so we have added more information about this to our FAQ page: https://www.babepedia.com/faq
