I’m the founder of Rating-Widget. I wanted to let you know that we are proud to announce that the new Rating-Widget plugin release supports BuddyPress & bbPress ratings. And the Premium version even support aggregated user ratings which is calculated based on all user’s activities.

I have to agree with Adchix - it is not beneficial to me to have a plug-in host the data elsewhere particularly when I need to do data analysis on the resulting collected data from the database for other purposes. I would appreciate any responses that focus on BuddyPress rating/voting/ranking where the data is held in my own database.
