Only being in CL group stages brings you 3 points, while everytime you eliminate a club in 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 finals or final, you get extra 1 point (win also brings 2 points and draw 1 points in late knock out stages).
Every team also gets some points based on their country coefficient.
Points from last 5 years are counted, and you get final standings.
So, one team may play in UEFA Cup only in last 5 years, and still be Nr.1 in UEFA club standings. That's why Steaua has so many points, because last year they got more points than every other team but Barcelona.
Next year, we may still be on top, because points from season 2001/02 won't be counted anymore, and in that season Milan played in UEFA Cup, where we got 23 points.
We need to have great CL season to get 23 points back and keep the top.

The trouble with these raitings is in the following rule:
"Every team also gets some points based on their country coefficient."
Apparently, England's coefficient is out of wack with respect to the others, making
this whole system subjective (who defines the coefficients can redefine the raitings).
