1. A method, comprising:

  • obtaining, by one or more computers, agent parameter data for a set of agents that are logged in to a call center;

    ranking or percentiling, by the one or more computers, the agents based at least in part on the agent parameter data, to obtain an agent distribution of agent rankings or percentiles;

    ranking or percentiling, by the one or more computers, the callers based at least in part on data relating to or predicting a caller propensity for a desired outcome, to obtain a caller distribution of caller rankings or percentiles;

    performing distribution compensation, by the one or more computers, using an edge compensation algorithm applied to at least one selected from the group of the distribution of the agent rankings or percentiles and the distribution of the caller rankings or percentiles, near at least one edge of the respective distribution, to obtain edge compensated rankings or percentiles; and

    matching, by the one or more computers, a respective one of the agents to a respective one of the callers based at least in part on their respective rankings or percentiles, where at least one of the caller ranking or percentile or the agent ranking or percentile has been distribution compensated.
