Can't do the math

[Yates, Glen]

When parsing words, multiple spaces are ignored, so word 3 ends up being the
first user in the group, not the group number you want to test against, so
try this instead.

  set the itemDelimiter to ":"
  repeat with x = 1 to the number of lines in varAllGroups
    if item 3 of line x of varAllGroups > 100 then
      put first item of line x of varAllGroups & return after field
"allgroups"
    end if
  end repeat

Using Rev 1.1.1B1 on Mac OS X the if statement below doesn't work 
correctly.
Here is the variable varAllGroups:

root::0:root
other::1:
bin::2:root,bin,daemon
sys::3:root,bin,sys,adm

Here is the script:

   replace ":" with space in varAllGroups --to make words for parsing
   repeat with x = 1 to the number of lines in varAllGroups
     if word 3 of line x of varAllGroups > 100 then
       put first word of line x of varAllGroups & return after field 
"allgroups"
     end if
   end repeat

The if statement doesn't do the math correctly. The lines 1, 3, and 4 
evaluate to true when they shouldn't.
