Back Link v Link Popularity - What's the difference ?

Yes, I like us all, have been beavering away to increase link popularity and it has been improving. Now over 2000. But, I looked on a site yesterday which offered a Google Crystal Ball type tool to predict your Google exposure. Anyway, it said I couldn't have a prediction because I had 0 backlinks.
There clearly is a difference then between incoming links and backlinks. Which ones should I be focusing on? I thought that being listed in directories would count as a 'quality' backlink.
Can anybody shed some light? Thanks.
