From the site:

For those that don't know, the GIni Coefficient is a crude way of measuring inequality (You can see the math behind it here). The basic idea is that on a scale of 0-100, 0 would represent a country where everyone had identical amounts of money, and 100 would represent a world in which just one person had all the money and everyone else had nothing.
