Klout says it measures influence across the social web. To sign up, you enter your twitter ID, so your Klout score is based on your impact there.

twitter-influence

Klout collects data about the content you create, how people interact with that content and the size and composition of your network. The Klout Score ranges from 1-100 and represents a person’s overall influence.

Both websites Twitalyzer and Twitter Grader tread a similar path. Great fun I guess but hard to see any authoritative value of any of this data tbh and essentially a waste of time unless you need your ego stroked/shot down in flames!
