The data isn't saved to b.net. What it does is whenever you play a game, it merges your locally saved high scores list with that of every other player in the game to try to get a more accurate overall high scores list. They combine that with a basic mechanism to prevent players from altering their local data files to prevent falsifying info, although they're hilariously overconfident about how foolproof their system is.
Basic problem with this approach is that local data is never tamperproof, and due to the data sharing system all you have to do is falsify with your local data and then play a few game online and before long your fake data will be on everyone's high score list.

It's a clever idea but not very practical.
