Summary: rating defaults to 1 when un-answered

Initial Comment:
Bug reported by slawrence AT ucdavis.edu: (confirmed by me)

Survey ID on demo site: 4148

When you create a new rating survey, if you do not
answer any questions on the first submission by just
clicking submit, the results page shows an average
score of (1.0) for each question, and the bar charts
also shows (1) for each question, even though I never
answered any questions (shouldn't they be zero?) 

Once a survey has already been answered once:

1) Test above survey
2) Click Submit
3) View Results
4) Note the average for each question
5) Re-Test the survey
6) Click Submit (Do not answer any questions)
7) View Results
8) Note the averages have changed, even though the
questions were not answered.

---------
It looks like either a blank field in the rating type
is being stored as 1, or the analysis is incorrectly
interpreting a blank in the database... anyone want to
fix this?

I sent a patch for espresponse.inc, that corrects this
behaviour on Aug 27. (mail-response on a language-setting
thread)

Just confirming this.  This is a huge issue that would provide 
false data in all our surveys.  This is one of the better 
surveying tools I've come across, specially considering the 
price and that it's PHP-based.

If anyone knows what to do to fix it, I would be eternally 
grateful.  I'm looking at the code myself but I have yet to 
figure out where this is handled.

Thank you.
