Here the authors suggest that

In the polis' case, this could mean distance from an ideal unanimous consensus (everybody agrees on all statements). This isn't interesting (or realistic) as an absolute value but could be used to find statements that can make a big difference if they are improved (ie they decrease distance from 'unanimous consensus' more than others
