I know this might be a stupid question, but...

...how is the length of the handlebar stem measured, I see on Chain Reaction that stems are available in different lengths (90cm, 100cm etc) and I was wondering how this figure is taken? Is it from the overall length or from the middle of the bars to the bolt coming up from the forms (excuse the basic terminology)?
