Hmisc's improveProb (Pencina's methods) exists because comparisons of 
AUC have low power.  If you want to compare AUCs a more direct approach 
is with rcorrp.cens in Hmisc.

You are confusing data for AUC which is a single summary measure.  I 
don't think you are using the term AUC in the right context.

Please consolidate your multiple queries into one note next time.
