On the Kaplan QBank there's a score estimator where you put in your percentage and they give you an estimated USMLE score...for instance I just got a 62% on a block and the estimated score was 230.

anyone know how (in)accurate this is?

Found this website, and it looks like it gives a good estimate. If u look at the Kaplan estimated score it shows a std dev of 62...so I wouldnt bank on kaplan's percentage as an estimate. However, if u look at UW, it only has a std dev of 18, so i would go wit UW for a better estimate of your score. Hope this helps.
