It approximates how long it's been since your browser was released and aggregates other stats based on referrer. I'm asserting that site's being visited by newer browsers are gathering a more tech savvy crowd.

IE10 using the Windows 8 modern interface is 0 days old. I wonder if they consider IE 10 to be released next month. I've had it installed for weeks.

Looks like browser versions newer than newest version they have in the data files get 0 days.
