How is skill level calculated in Battlelog?

Question

After a match, I usually look in Battlelog match resume to observe my results, together with those of my teammates and opponents.

On question came to my mind: how is skill level calculated?

In fact, while you can see my battle stats with a K/D outcome of 14/13 and 12% accuracy report a skill level of 13.77, the top player from the winning team had a -10.71 skill level with a K/D of 25/14 and a greater accuracy than mine.

How come?

From Dice:

This is what determines your skill level on your stats page:

• You gain/loose SL based on every confrontation with another player

• Killing a highly skilled enemy gives you more points than killing someone less skilled

• Points are not transferred from a player to another, they are simply added/subtracted based on the encounter and the SL of both parts (thus, after an encounter, one part may go up 50 points while the other loses only 20)

• The SL is used for matchmaking

Skill level fluctuates so much, I wouldn't worry about it.
