The �downloads� refer to how many times the person has downloaded other printables.  This number has nothing to do with the points.
In the examples you used, the member has 1.032 points because his printables have been downloaded 1.032 times. He has 200 downloads because he has downloaded other members� printables 200 times.
It sounds confusing but it is very simple.

I don�t think that Anna P is right.
I have about 280 points.  The 280 is the sum of the downloads I got on different worksheets. I have 42 downloads. That means that I have downloaded 42 worksheets outwith my premium membership.

The users nilay1972 pointed out cannot have the amount of points stated according to the sum if you add up their downloads on each worksheet. I think there might be a technical fault. I also wondered about the date of the printables. I think it was always the 23rd January 2008. Might be a coincidence, though.

I think I read a comment on the board before about a member mentioning too many points. Very noble by the way. Victor replied, that he will sort that out.
I think it�s best to leave it to him.

Thanks again to Victor!

Nilay means that this member has 1032 points but his contributions have been dowloaded 200 times.
This happens because in this site, at the beginning, points were not given for downloads, but for average rating.
(there were not many users and the number of downloads was very low).

Thanks for the answer Victor. I�m glad there�s nothing wrong. That means this doesn�t cause you any work. :-)
