Glicko is the rating system chess.com uses, RD = rating deviation.

 

It pretty much measures how volatile your rating will be. If you don't play for a long time your RD will be higher and if you win/loss you will gain/lose more points. 

 

Here is the article about chess.com's rating system if you are interested:
