fine tuned, dynamic rating
Yeah, that's the sort of stuff I like!
I'd like to have a remote control that I can press a (+) or (-) button to say "Yeah I still dig this song! Keep playing it" or "Nah, I'm kinda getting over this tune. There's only so many times I can hear about Golder Gaytimes..." and have a fluid rating system. I've written a program which sits on the screen and allows percentage rating, you can find it at this page

Is there any way to do this automatically via Applescript?
fine tuned, dynamic rating
There's apparently no way to find out when a song has just finished.
What you could do is have an application that controls iTunes, and you only use it to change songs. When the song changes (which you can only tell by polling every n seconds) and you didn't cause it, then up the rating. If you skip the song, drop the rating. You could do this quite easily in AppleScript Studio. I'll (possibly) write this over the next couple of days. Subscribe to my RSS feed and I'll post an entry when I'm done.

If the script saves the ID and play count for the current track, then it only needs to see if the play count has been incremented when it sees a new track playing. iTunes doesn't increment the play count that you skip before it finishes playing.

Done! See iTunes AutoRater.
