I have received below percentage fo ressay readability from e-grader but what are those items mean?
Also, is this grade reliable enough? In other words, how accurate is the e-grader?
Is the score given by the e-grader similar to the score from real Ielts tests?

The score by e-grader is based on the language/readability of 20,000 essays. It doesn't check the meaning of the words or ideas. If you don't write the essay out of the topic, the score is very close to the real IELTS tests (though it is not 100%). If you still have doubts about the marks, you may ask English teachers, or IELTS tutors double check the marks, or upgrade to VIP users to receive further evaluations by advanced module of e-grader and human graders.
