Keep in mind that the bouncing period is important.
If the user bounces for a shorter period (in days) than the value of the 
minimum_bouncing_period parameter, then the score won't be evaluated. 
The default vlaue for this parameter is 10.
As you user seems to be bouncing for only four days, it seems normal, 
provided you didn't change this parameter value, that its score hasn't 
been calculated yet.

Cheers,
