From the entry lists, the average rank of the 30 in the main draw (excluding our two unranked WC's) is 336.5, and the average rank of the seeds is 201.
Haven't time right now, but compare that with the chart on https://britishtennis.activeboard.com/t64230058/random-charts-nonsense/?page=17 and it isn't far off the median
In keeping with the original chart, I have recalculated the figures using the same criteria as the charts - DA only, no Q's or WC - and taken the median rather than the average.
Median of seeds = 208. Median of non-seeds = 330. This puts Shrewsbury very close to the middle of the range of the 25k's in blob's graph.
Tom - although not truly accurate, the fastest way is to take the rankings off the acceptance list - copy and paste into excel as text, and use those figures. But it would also make it a lot easier to look up the current rankings with that listin front of you.

thanks folks for all this analysis - I'm always amazed at the willingness of people on this forum to help out answer queries from those like me too lazy to work it out myself!
On a serious note, interesting it is mid range. I guess having a high top seed skewers my view on things. I also guess women's 25k events have a better ranking average than mens events at same money level, which biases my view as I tend to look at ATP detail more often
I was still looking at Google scores which were showing 4-0 30-15*, but that's great news. Would have been Rus next, but it's now Minnen as mentioned earlier. Hopefully she can do the Emma double and beat Haas and Minnen in consecutive rounds.
Noticed from the CH win list in the stats that Haas is Emma Raducanu's CH win from Wirral last week when Haas was WR 190 and beaten by Emma in the L16.
Thought Maia's might have been a bit higher but yes 189.
That is now probably enough for Maia to nudge up her own CH 368 a few places on Monday week. A SF win would probably take her into the top 350.
Seems to be rather bookending her year as she did last year. Let's not stop yet ...
