		I would guess that you are Mega-Evil Empire at this time in your game.  Thus the quick declaration of war.  MEE typically means that you have 500K points or more.  I would guess that the alien had less than 10% of your score.  Most AI's will surrender when your score is 1000% of theirs.  Ships are only one factor in the score.  Production, research, intellegence points and tech levels also contribute points
