What do grey stars in the Rating column mean?

In the Music view in iTunes I see grey stars for some tracks. When I look at those tracks on my iPhone I can see that I have set the rating of that track to the stars indicated by the grey stars, but even after syncing the iPhone through iTunes I still only see these tracks with grey stars rather than the black stars. My questions are:

  1. What is the meaning of grey rating stars?
  2. How can I get the rating of a track that I set on my iPhone to sync across to iTunes? It sometimes seems to work, but more often than not it doesn't.
