They get data from all the exchanges/markets and put them all together into one, probably with the use of an algorithm or API from the exchanges, that makes the process automated. I believe that sounds logical.

Every exchange you see at Coinmarketcap is having API.
In most there are separated public and private APIs where the public are the data you are watching at Coinmarketcap. Like trading pairs, daily volume, etc. Then Coinmarketcap are collection all those data and displaying the average prices and volumes.
