You beat me to it (by seconds), but you are absolutely correct. Essentially, what AccurateRip does is compare the audio you extract to what others extracted from the same CD. For the comparison, AccurateRip calculates a CRC for each track.
For details of the calculation method, see: https://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthread.php?20641-AccurateRip-CRC-Calculation
