Of course I don't think he has purchased all the 1-stars, but he's not rating whole discogs with the same stars.

Clearly a basket case. I've deleted all the one star reviews for Echolyn and Tori Amos (though anyone calling an album Abnormally Attracted to Sin deserves everything they getErmm)

Is it odd to be a big Kate Bush fan, but to hate Tori Amos?  I kind of think of them as being somewhat comparable.

At least he doesn't seem to have multiple accounts. I suggest PM him and nuke the ratings.

How about this guy?

He also rated the new Flower Kings album, no review, and it's still a couple weeks before it comes out.

^ I've just submitted a rating only review for this album and then deleted it. The score and number of ratings does correct itself exactly as Rob states. Given the huge number of albums that were rated by our South American miscreant, short of Max running the rating calculation across the entire album database, it's maybe gonna take a real long while before everything is back to normal. .Unfortunately the bulk delete of all the offending entries does not update the ratings

If anyone rates that album (or changes their rating), it will correct itself.

I'm afraid that Jose Natal has caused damages that will be hard to fix. Just an example: 
after his ratings have been removed, this album 

Jon Anderson Searching for the Songs album cover


Shows 

4.43 | 54 ratings | 0 reviews | 40% 5 stars


But there are only those:

That means 5 ratings for an avg of 4.00
