Same question for me...some info on my acct. seems pretty close and accurate, but yes, who provides the score, and how often is it updated?

I have no idea, I actually paid for Experian, which said I had a 549, and I have a 602 on here...

When you respond to the message of agreeing to let Credit Karma pull your report information, the message says it is pulling it from TransUnion.

TransUnion is the credit agency used on Credit Karma. The different agencies have different ways that the score appears,that is why you are seeing different numbers. Also creditors don't always report to all the agencies so you may see an account on one and not the other. Creditors report monthly to the credit agencies.
