Depends on what they view as average. If the average person they encounter is decently attractive it's a compliment but if not then it is not. Similarly to being the smartest person in the room when surrounded by idiots or being above average in smarts when surrounded by geniuses.

LMAO, I’d be so annoyed
6 is "fuckable", but not exactly worthy of being called beautiful or hot. It's less of a compliment and more of a "good enough". Anyone who says it's a compliment is also probably happy getting a 60 on an exam.
I agree 7 ok. I'd consider that average. Like a C grade or 70 percent.

I'd say yes. If out of all of the people in the world, you're considered above average, I think that would be a good thing.
I don't think 6 is bad. I don't really go by a number scale, but the way I see it, 1-2 would be very unattractive, 3-4 below average, 5 average/okay, 6-7 above average, and 8-10 extremely attractive.
Also, remember that attractiveness, especially when it comes to ratings, are very subjective. Don't take one person's number rating of you to heart, as it's not universal.I think those people have a poor vocabulary, I don’t use these words to compliment someone or something. If ones are about to compliment you they would say beautiful/ pretty/ gorgeous/stunning. It’s all about education right?
I feel that's the general consensus with people our age now but I feel you personally should take victories where they can be found. Hold your head up high if you're called a 6 or 7
I'd rather be above average than average or ugly so yes, I take it as a compliment lol that means you look better than the majority of people.
Yeah I’d say so, don’t really think that the 1-10 thing is that accurate but calling someone better than average is accurate. It means your looks aren’t plain. They are more interesting.
Above average is above average. I am happier about getting a 7 than a 10. If someone gives me a 10 I feel they are idealizing me. 10 is like the most beautiful person you have ever seen for me.
It certainly doesn't mean anything bad. Probably a compliment.
Lol. One person is going to call you a 9 and someone else will consider you a 4. It doesn't matter.
If you were attrative they would say you are hot, beautiful, etc. Above average sounds like they dont find you attractive but you look slightly better then someone else.
It is not a compliment because a compliment includes emption in it. It is just an opinion but if someone says it to me, I would appreciate.
Ya well uh, I dont know a 10 is above average but honestly if some one puts a number on u like that they're idiots
Yes. People all think they deserve a 10 tough. They do not necessarily do...
Yup it usually means you're wiser beyond your years.
It means nothing much as rating people is so subjective.
I don’t consider that a compliment
Yes that’s a compliment
why you should put yourself on a scale?
Well... its better then being rated below average
No, I'd consider it a factual statement.
Yes it is
