Showing the margin of error or the confidence interval for the
"strictness" is going to be pretty difficult, and I don't think it
would be any less confusing than having the strictness value as a
percent.  My idea is to do something similar to the "optimization"
slider in the browser: have a slider with no numerical markings with
"strict match" on one side, and "[some word that means the opposite of
strict] match" on the other.  But I'm not sure what to call put there.
 I've thought of the following:

- "fuzzy match"
- "loose match"
- "approximate match"

Let me know what makes the most sense (or suggest something else), and
I'll put it in.  Thanks.
