"Position" in a book: What does it mean?

Hi,

when you read a book or set a highlight, a "position" within
a book is displayed.

Does anybody know what this position is supposed to be?
(e.g. number of sentences or number of words divided by 10)

I would like to extract the toc from a book which comprises the chapter title and the position of the chapter start. If I know how the position is calculated I could extract the positions from the html source.

Thanks,

Jens
