There's no actual "world ranking" system that I know of for these games, though the seeding for EVO is based on select tournament placings held throughout the year that are considered part of the 'Road to EVO.' Ricky Ortiz is #1 seed based on his consistent Top 4 performances in those RoE tournaments, most (me Included) would definitely not say he is the #1 player or favorite to win EVO for instance.

Check out the Fighting Games 2012 Thread if you want detail on the placings. pachi (the TC for this thread and that thread) did an amazing job with listing each event, and the Top 8 for past events if you want an idea of who's the most consistent players.

Most Japanese players don't go to these events, therefore they don't have much/any points. The "Notable Competitors" list in the OP is good.
In that regard I noticed something. Why is Nuki listed even though he won't be at EVO this year?

Not everybody knows. He registered but he had to cancel apparently due to a death in his family.
