my first thought is something like the crash reporter setup except instead of 
crash data being taken and uploaded, it is a user's local ratings... this way 
there would be no/less chance of the web submission interface being gamed and 
each submission would have a UUID, maybe use the crash reporter UUID?

that's a gut suggestion before 1st c0ffee, though...
