by "bounce to SERP rate" I mean the percentage of your visitors who bounce (leave) the site and go back to the SERP (search engine ranking position) page on google. if they do this fast enough, google tracks that and this is a factor in triggering panda / further quality analysis
google can also track your average bounce rate across the site for inner ages through chrome, firefox, and google toolbar users, or through google analytics.
however they get the data, they get it, and this is a major panda factor, I suspect the key trigger that warrants a closer look for bad quality
they only want the highest quality sites in their index and they measure this by things like bounce to serp rate - if 70% of the people who go to your site click back within 10 seconds this is a bad sign that your site has low value and it will be either removed for that ALONE, or this will be a factor triggering additional checks / and/or used as one of many quality signals to ensure only the best most enjoyed sites rank highest in google.
