I for one could not begin to address your question as I do not know what 
you mean by ranking, nor am I familiar with Ruby or @act_as_votable. Nor 
do I understand "implementing this rudimentarily, add python code and 
copy to do everything"

Perhaps others have the background to help you. If you don't get any 
useful replies, please explain the desired behavior.
