Hi, here's a possibility!
Your problem can be restated as "given 2 observers giving 2 measures what is their level of agreement" - the classical measure here is the Kappa (see sec 10.5 of Categorical Data Analysis by Alan Agresti (in Ed 1 - Ed 2 should also have it!) and you can also model the situation (same section of book). I had a similar problem comparing time series modelled by two (or more) different methods in my PhD some years back. I had several series so it was a bit easier. Obviously, it's a bit of a problem with 2 time series but if they are sufficiently long (say 200+ obs) you could proceed as follows: Take k sub-sample series of length say 35+ obs. Then fit say about 5 different arima models to each (if you know seasonal adjustment X11ARIMA the 5 basic models used there are good options - I can't remember them!) You can now create a 2X2 table (method 1 X method 2) each with 5 outcome model types and then count the number of models falling into each cell. Then apply the agreement measure! Obviously, there will be dependence across the selected series that will not be accounted for in the outcome frequencies, but if the time series are reasonably long this shouldn't be too bad. good luck with it!

Any other measure I could use? You could fit an arima model and compare the residuals. It should be could enough to get an estimate, even if I see some theoretical problems in "measure the same thing".
