I do something similar: I have a "good stuff" search playlist setup three or more stars. I usually play a random selection from the "Good Stuff". The catch is that when searching it seems that "unrated/zero stars" is treated as a zero rather than a null (unrated). This means whenever I add new musics to my collection it initially his unrated/zero stars. I have to manually give it a rating of say 3 stars to appear on my "good stuff list". To make this as simple as possible, I have another "unrated" automatic playlist set to match zero stars. I then select all of the results, and edit their rating to be three.

I would like a rating-weigted random mode (where more stars means more likely to be played; but taking into account the total tracks for each rating), but that's getting complicated...
