In September of 2015, I computed the win ratio for Euchre players who had completed at least 100 games. I used the numbers that produce the "Absolute win/loss ratio" shown under your "stats" link. Below you will see the distribution of players by win percents. There's one player who has managed to attain a win ratio of > 70%. There are 15 with win ratios between 60-70%... most players come in around 40-50%, which I still think is really very good (especially because that's where my stats stand!).

There is some speculation about just how good you can get with your statistics; how much of Euchre is a matter of luck, and how much is skill. Some people think the best you can do is somewhere around 66%... and these statistics support that idea.

I think the player winning 70+% of euchre games is using multiple browsers or another technique.
Do your stats include quits? That's what I've seen in online play, people will quit when a loss is likely to avoid the loss on them record. A quit should count as a loss to discourage that annoying practice.
The answer is yes. There's a later blog post that describes two different types of stats used at the site - absolute stats and relative stats.
