It's called differential and it's used to make the plane roll axially.

The lower part of the wing has more airflow than the top, making up-aileron less effective than down-aileron, so you increase the top aileron throw to make it roll axially. Typically you increase the top somewhere between 105-115% in aerobatic models.
