some stores make it up to enhance sales on particular titles they have in copious amounts (supermarkets!)
The rest of us use either the Nielson Booksales data, their own company sales, The Sunday Times bestsellers (although I believe this is also based on Nielson) or an amalgamation of all of them. You will generally find that in proper bookstores the first 10 in the hardback & paperback charts are the same and the rest are based on company sales.
By the way - Thanks Chris, the FACT thing was annoying me too, it was funny the first few times but is now very annoying
