Aside from that there could be scalability issues in relying on overall rank, which essentially means maintaining an ordered list of all of the sparrers, as opposed to only the top sparrers. Maintaining a full list can become computationally expensive as it grows.

there are ways you could lower the full list of sparers. You could remove anyone hasn't spared in 7 days(arbitrary number), you could also have it be weekly or monthly. It would be based on the results of the previous week or month. There of course would be some worries in a static ranking, you would need some sort of requirements from appearing on the board. Maybe over 1k spars? The reason for that would be so you couldn't say, boost your noob to a stupidly good record, then boost off of the noob to gain a crap ton of points very quickly.
Now how that list would be decided would be more difficult.
Win ratio? Activity? Total points in the previous system? Community consensus?(okay, probably not that one). I just don't know how you could start it off.
