I had always heard that it was the scoring formula, but that's not strictly correct.
If that were the case, the clue should have been something like:
y = a(x-1)+b
or
y = ax - a + b
Where:
y = score
a = height of tallest stack
x = number of bins in zone, including those in the stack
b = bonus points from ramp
(The -1 is because the bins making up the stack did not count towards the total, e.g. if there were 6 bins in the zone but 3 of them were in a stack the score would be 3*3=9 instead of 6*3=18)
