There's an interesting ranking system emerging over at beatpaths.com. It started as a way of ranking NFL teams based on who has beaten whom, perhaps fueled by a Broncos fan frustrated with his team being ranked too low by other systems. There are plans to analyze the NBA and MLB, but it seems generally applicable to most competitions.
Another cool thing: dig the graphs straight out of graphviz, a nice open source tool for buiding graphs from textual specifications.
