It is your star rating. You achieve a star rating the moment you reach the 100 user (number) rating. And I think 7 is a high star. I think I started with 8 star when I reached my 100 user rating. Have a nice day!

You get the star after you make 100th post in here. I see that you have make 104 post until now. The star shown how quality post you make and the number when you move your cursor to the star is shown your reputation. The reputation can up and down. It depends to your future post, if you make some quality post and other members rate you positively so it will increase your reputation and your star number.

That star reflects the percentage of + ratings you have received on myLot. Your approval rating, if you would. Do not pay a lot of attention to it, as it can be lowered by someone just being spiteful, and sometimes people do not rate at all, and sometimes they rate - for the wrong reasons.

the star is your reputation status in the forum, you got it from people who rated you positive for your discussions and response. the color changes as your rating and reputation increases. the number in it is your rating, it is from 1-10 and 10 as the highest. some have the same numbers and has different reputation. yours is 69 out of 100. did you know that? if not, then place your cursor on the star for at least 2 seconds and your status will appear. keep on posting and once you reach 200 posts, you can now use the smileys/emoticons if you are fond of it.

Thank you all for explaining that. I was wondering that myself. I just joined today and didn't know what that was for.
