Zemi, this thread explains how the ratings are calculated in some detail: https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/World-Rankings-as-of-9-28-New-Format/first

The short, short version is that ratings are a relative estimate of performance so if e.g. a higher ranked server beats a lower ranked server then the ratings aren’t as likely to change as if a lower ranked server beats a higher ranked server since the expected result matches closely to what actually happened. The closer the prediction is to the reality the less the rankings will change, the further off it is the more the rankings will change. Please see the referenced post for many more details.
