Each player has a Combat Reputation and a Battle Reputation that can be viewed by all players. These are useful for getting a quick idea of the battle prowess of players.
Since Battle Reputation / Combat Reputation titles show up next to Name and Rank on the battle tab, a lesser title can mark a player as an easier target that doesn't hit back and result in being attacked more often.
Determining Combat Reputation
Combat Reputation is a title each player gets based on the difference between how many times they have disabled other players and how many times others have disabled them (Player Kills - Deaths from Players). NPC kills do not affect this. This title gives an idea of combat prowess and style of play, although the "Player Kills" and "Deaths from Players" numbers tell more.
In addition, if a player has not yet successfully disabled an opponent or has not been disabled themselves they can maintain an "unknown" combat reputation.
An "Undefeated" combat reputation can also be maintained so long as the player has successfully disabled opponents but has not been disabled themselves.
Determining Battle Reputation
Battle reputation is a title each player gets that is based on the running total of the number of attacks the player has made.
Each time a player presses the Attack button in a battle their Battles count increases by one. So this number and title give an idea of how active the player is in battling. NPC battles are included.
It should be noted that a weaker ship will need to do more attacks to disable an opponent. So Battle Reputation becomes more of a measure of how much energy a player has used doing attacks.
