There is an interesting chess ratings calculation program on my ftp site.

Some interesting things about it:
0. It seems slightly more accurate at actual predictions, based on extensive
simulations.
1. It does not need to be "primed" with pre-existing ELO values like other
systems.

It was written by R. Jones, and you can read the theory behind it here:

Here is the file:
