It's both. Sure the higher the score the more time you dedicate to playing games. Some achievements are easy and others take a certain mad determination to keep the fingers itching and the body going for that awesome "blopb-blopb" sound. I think the idea of getting achievements are addictive and in turn it becomes addictive.

To me, Achievements are primarily a fun meta-game to go after when the game(s) proper aren't as engaging.
When I see a low Gamerscore, I figure the person only really plays/enjoys a couple of games.
When I see a medium amount, I assume the person plays a lot of games and/or is a completionist.
When I see a large number, 75k+, I assume the person is a "waffler" (as XbA has affectionately dubbed them) that enjoys the meta-game of grabbing Achievements enough to jump on... less-fun titles.

Sounds like me
But I don't think gamerscore proves how good you are at games. If you're going to go by achievements to prove skill, you should check to see what kinda achievements a person has

Yeah, I definitely agree with this.
I run in to a lot of folks with 2 or 3 thousand total, but I'll check their list and they have all the Gamerscore or close to it in Halo 3 or Gears of War.
