Ranking System Alternatives

Hi everyone!
While i was playing to Osu this morning i noticed that the Performance Points based Ranking System does not seem so clear and representative to me.
Indeed, your number of PP isn't, most part of the time, representative of your level, your capacities, etc... So, naturally, a question came to my mind : does an other Ranking System exist? not based on Performance Points, but rather on accuracy, speed, marking (SS, S, A, B...), etc...
And, if it doesn't, what would you want to see included in this system ?
I'm a complete neophyte about programming, and even about how to create an equal and balanced ranking system in a game like Osu, but i think that it coud be possible to create a new ranking system taking in account all of these points.
I don't think that i have necessary capacities for such a big project, but it could, at least, be interesting to talk about this, and maybe, if we're lucky, a good programmer will see this and try to create such a new system?
So please, if you have any idea or if you already had this idea in mind, let a post!

If rankings were based on SS and accuracy and stuff like that you could just go farm that on easy maps. The PP system is the best for ranking players. They could for example raise the amount of weighted plays from 100 to something like 150 though. I don't know how much a difference it would make though. Also The PP system already takes into account your accuracy and all that and the pp is decided on how difficult the map is and how well you peform.

You can also read about the pp system here: https://osu.ppy.sh/help/wiki/Performance_Points

Maybe this will help you understand the ranking system better.

Hi, i'm sorry for disturbing you again, and thanks for the link ;) but i'm trying to see the fluctuation of pp total in terms of number of maps and the height of best scores, but i have a little problem : what is the formula to round the weighting ?
I tried to round the weighting at 0,1,2 and 3 decimals, and same for the pp but my total is never the good one. Do you know the exact formula for this calculation ?
Thanks.

And thanks Gstack!
