How to compare Spam scores quarter to quarter

I would like to see how the SEO amends that I have been making have reduced my Spam score in Moz Pro. Can you let me know if this is possible and, if so, where I would go get this?

To compare spam scores quarterly, collect data from each quarter's spam reports, analyze spam volume trends, and evaluate changes in spam characteristics. Use statistical tools to quantify variation and identify patterns. This helps you evaluate spam mitigation strategies over time.

Gather Data: Collect the spam scores for each quarter that you want to compare. Ensure that you have the spam scores for the same time duration in each quarter. For example, if you are comparing Q1 of 2022 to Q1 of 2023, make sure you have the spam scores for January, February, and March of both years.
Calculate Average Score: Calculate the average spam score for each quarter. Add up all the individual spam scores for the quarter and divide the sum by the total number of spam scores. This will give you the average spam score for each quarter.
Normalize Scores: To make the comparison more meaningful, you can normalize the spam scores. Normalize the scores by dividing each score by the maximum possible score or by scaling them to a specific range (e.g., 0 to 100). This will help in removing any discrepancies due to different scales or maximum values.
Visualize the Comparison: Plot a line graph or a bar graph to visualize the comparison of spam scores quarter to quarter. Label the x-axis with the quarters (e.g., Q1 2022, Q2 2022, etc.) and the y-axis with the normalized or average spam scores. You can use a different color for each quarter to make it easier to distinguish between them.
Analyze the Trends: Analyze the graph to identify any trends or patterns in the spam scores over the quarters. Look for any significant increases or decreases in the scores and note any outliers or anomalies. This analysis will help you understand the changes in spam activity over time.
Draw Conclusions: Based on the trends and patterns you observe, draw conclusions about the effectiveness of spam prevention measures or any other factors that might be influencing the spam scores. Identify any quarter-to-quarter improvements or areas that require further attention.

Here are the steps you might take:
Record Initial Spam Scores: Use Moz's Link Explorer tool or API to record the spam scores of the domains you're interested in. Make sure to do this at the end of the quarter to ensure that your data aligns with your quarterly comparisons.
Organize Your Data: Put your data in a spreadsheet, such as Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel, where you can easily compare the scores. Each domain should have its own row, and each column should represent a quarter.
Record Spam Scores Each Quarter: At the end of each quarter, repeat step 1 and add the new scores to your spreadsheet.
Analyze the Data: With this setup, you can easily see how each domain's spam score has changed from quarter to quarter. You can calculate the change in percentage and observe the trends.
Visualize the Data: To further understand and present the data, you might choose to create graphs or charts that show the changes over time. This can help you spot trends and patterns that might not be immediately obvious from the raw data.

Spam links with high DA
I'm running through the spam analysis and noticed a few links that are considered to be 9+ on the spam score (high spam level), but some of them have DA of 60 -75. How can this be possible? When I view the sites they appear to be be pretty low quality. If i'm considering disavowing a site should I focus on spam score or DA? A DA of 75 is a pretty reputable standing.

Comparing New vs. Old Keyword Difficulty Scores
We've had a few questions regarding the new Keyword Difficulty score used in Keyword Explorer, and how it compares to the old score in our stand-alone Keyword Difficulty tool. Specifically, people want to know why some scores are much lower using the new tool. There a general discussion of the math behind the tool in this post: Keyword Research in 2016: Going Beyond Guesswork One of the problems we had with the original Keyword Difficulty score is that, because it's based on our Page Authority (PA) score and PA tends toward the middle of the 0-100 range, Difficulty got a bit bunched up. A Difficulty score in the low-to-mid 20s (via the old tool) is actually very low. So, we set out to re-scale the new tool to broaden that score and use more of the 0-100 range. We hoped this would allow more granularity and better comparisons. While the logic is sound, we're concerned that we may have been too aggressive in this re-scaling, given recent feedback. So, we're going to be analyzing a large set of keywords (anonymously, of course) that people have run through the tool to see if too many Difficulty scores seem too low. If they do, we'll make some adjustments to the math. In the meantime, please be aware that low scores may appear lower in the new tool and very high scores may appear higher. We wanted to address some of the limitations in V1 and feedback over the years, and so the old and new scores really can't be compared directly in a meaningful way. We're sorry for any confusion that has caused, and we will re-evaluate if necessary.

Whether or not to remove a link from a website with high spam score on Open Site Explorer
Hello Moz! I just subscribed for your Moz Pro program. Amazing stuff! On open site explorer, I found a number of links to my site from a page called with a very high page authority and high domain authority, but also a high spam score (8 or 9, one with a 10). I say multiple spam scores, because it's strange, there are what appears variations of the same url, and each one is considered a link. For instance, there's an abc.linkstomysite.com and xyz.linktomysite.com, and 123.linktomysite.com... there are about 15 of these (all with the spam scores mentioned above)! This must have been some old SEO work done I payed for back in the prehistoric SEO days. However, my fear is the following: Removing these links, and then losing some potentially strong link juice. I don't have many high DA or PA links to my site, and these are some major ones. The domain in question "linktomysite.com", when entered into OSE, only has a spam score of 4, and it has a domain authority of 45 and page authority of 37. My site has a spam score of 2 and no messages from google regarding a penalty, but an overall reduction in google traffic over the years (just keeps slowly dropping... as if a weight is pulling me down?) What do you think, should I leave, or remove? The linkstomysite page is just a LONG page full of links, with short descriptions, nothing of value, but with a an old domain age (relatively). Most important for me is keeping at least some ranking/visibility, while I personally work on building quality links and helpful content. thanks!

Keyword Difficulty Score Not Available
What exactly does this mean? That the service is down? Or the score will never be available? It seems like I get that and then the tool gets stuck and I get no other data.
