Best way is to compare yourself with the people in your division/unit. Does your big boss like your work output better than those around you? Does he value your counsel?
If the answer is yes, you will probably get a reasonable grade. If you think you're in the shadows, and no one notices the work that you do at all (not even quietly notice), then good luck.
The A grader is probably someone who did something spectacular that year. Not many people get A grading. But does it really matter? I've never gotten an A before either. Doesn't mean the organisation doesn't value me. To me, anything between a C and a B+ is fine.
