i have my own formula used for sports ratings (like jeff sagarin, the
bcs, etc). right now i have an old Visual Basic code that updates the
ratings and i just save it as a text file and ftp to the web. i'd
really love to make it dynamic, so it presents better ( like
http://kenpom.com/rpi.php ), but also giving me the option of better
utilizing the data and do some other studies easily.

i new to django, i'm experienced with php. i could do it in php no
doubt, but am really looking at doing a few projects in django as
learning experiences.

the formula isn't complex essentially an adjusted winning percentage
(wins / games played). the tricky part is doing iterations until the
ratings stabilize, right now i'm the ratings average out to 0.5 and i
iterate the ratings over and over until none of them change more than
0.00001.

my dealings with django have been setting up like a blog, so i'm
comfortable in writing everything to do with outputting the info once
it's computed, but haven't done anything where it's a script/code that
only i run, once a week that computes the ratings.

any tips/tutorials on doing stuff like this?
