The units are electrons/atom where multiplicity of sites is taken into
account (and it is only within the muffin tins and for L=0).
I will guess that "-cc" was probably used for "charge convergence",
although since the variables are charge density your second one makes more
sense to me.
Unless you had to use a very small value (e.g. for phonons) or had issues
for some reason with bad convergence I would not worry too much; saying
"used the standard convergence criteria for the charge density as -cc
0.0001" would be fine for me if I was on your committee.
