Update: while Hard Knocks was alliance-less for most part of 2014, it was in an alliance for some time and that time missed from the original calculation. It's now fixed. With this result, they are the new #12, above Shadow Cartel! Their "top enemies" list hints renter ganking and anti-Imperium fights, but their zone table tells the truth: they are a WH corp, operating mostly in C6 and C5 and occasionally come out to K-space for a few ganks. Their graphs are stupidly green with 81% overall ISK ratio. They have both EU and USTZ activity and prefer 10-30-men fleets.

Below you can see what alliances contributed more than 100B to the killboard of the analyzed one.
Rank Alliance B Damage done B Damage taken ISK ratio
1 Northern Associates. 348 45 88
2 Brothers of Tangra 372 11 97
3 Goonswarm Federation 140 32 81
4 Fidelas Constans 103 16 86
5 No Holes Barred 66 46 59
6 Nulli Secunda 100 3 97
7 Shadow of xXDEATHXx 96 6 94
- Sum of small ones 2410 695 78
- Total 3635 854 81

The inflation factor of this alliance is 137%. Below you can see which alliances helped it the most by shooting the same target. Please note that damage is capped by own damage, so if the analyzed alliance did 1B damage, X did 2B, Y did 8B, then X get 0.2B help, Y get 0.8B, as their help provided 1B de-inflated damage.
Rank Alliance B Damage helped
1 #Corp: Lazerhawks 86
- Sum of small ones 281
- Total 367

Below you can see the monthly activity distribution chart. "Month" is here 1/12 year and not exact calendar month. Also, sorry for the ASCII graph, but creating so many proper image charts would be exreme work for all the alliances. Colors refer to ISK ratios, pure red means below 20%.

This is the ship value distribution of the alliance. The total population has equal damage done and taken in all 6 groups. Please note that "Ships killed" is also de-inflated, if the alliance did 1% damage to a ship, they get 0.01 kill:

LowSechnaya Sholupen is another very green group, operating mostly in Aridia lowsec, killing anything and everything venturing there. They have very strong solo activity and do very well in small gang too. They rarely fly blobs and lose only in these fights. Their activity grown over the year, so 2015 will likely be a better year for them.

Below you can see the corps of the alliance with more than 100B of its activity:

Please note that damage is capped by own damage, so if the analyzed alliance did 1B damage, X did 2B, Y did 8B, then X get 0.2B help, Y get 0.8B, as their help provided 1B de-inflated damage.
