[wp-hackers] Dynamic User Pages - How Does BuddyPress do it?

[BenderisGreat]

Trying to dynamically create user pages (front end) without a plugin. 
Similar to how buddypress does it - no custom post types for users, just
member profile urls.  I tried this:

        add_filter( 'query_vars', 'analytics_rewrite_add_var' );
        
        function analytics_rewrite_add_var( $vars )
        {
            $vars[] = 'member';
            return $vars;
        }
        
        function add_analytic_rewrite_rule(){
            add_rewrite_tag( '%member%', '([^&]+)' );
            add_rewrite_rule(
                '^member/([^/]*)/?',
                'index.php?member=$matches[1]',
                'top'
            );
        }
        add_action('init', 'add_analytic_rewrite_rule');
        add_action( 'template_redirect', 'analytics_rewrite_catch' );
        
        
        function analytics_rewrite_catch()
        {
            global $wp_query;
        
            if ( array_key_exists( 'member', $wp_query->query_vars ) ) {
            	get_header();
            	the_content();
                include_once( ABSPATH .
'/wp-content/plugins/My_Plugin/members.php');
                get_sidebar();
                get_footer();
                exit;
               
            }    
        }

But it generates the same page for every user, and even loads the page if a
random username that isnt registered is entered.   How exactly does
buddypress hook into users to make dynamic pages?  I am looking at the code
now, but they have so many files.  Any help appreciated.
