or are the userscores more than often very similar to the reviewer-scores?

If this is true, I think it would either suggest:
A) that the users lets their objectivity be affected by the reviewers.
B) that the reviewers are good at their job.

HAHA! An astute observation.

I'll go with suggestion B.[/obvious bias]

I don't think many people vote in the user polls... by that I mean I don't.

I agree with The_Voice. I don't vote often though. Usually I wait for at least a few weeks before I vote for a newly acquired album (hehe I avoided the buy/download word :P ). And also, most of the times I vote for good albums than bad ones since I never listen to a bad album more than a few times.

I forget that the voting feature exists frequently and so hardly ever use it.

Just you. Take a picture of yourself on your mobile and post it here, that'll give the thread a point.
