My character Rathur got a 14. Not all that bad but not all that good. He's kind of a stu (er whatever) except for the fact that he's a KILLER ASSASSIN BAD GUY!!! I guess the test writer thinks Mary Sues are rampaging killers :P. No it isn't that bad.

My MC got 81.

That doesn't actually upset me, when you consider that the character is actually a play on several stereotypes, including Elves and Gods, and switches from Good to Bad and back as often as one of her relatives is killed (roughly every 5-6 chapters). Nvere mind being part-god, part-human and part-elemental.

The simple truth is that authors like making people squirm. If this weren't the case, all novels would be filled completely with cute bunnies having birthday parties.
