The best for a certain class, I don't want to specifically call anyone out, on my server has a K: D ratio of 0.3 and isn't particularly good. Why is he/she the best? Because he/she joins mini-games constantly and have managed to get to PVP 3 whereas everyone else is stuck at 2. I strongly doubt this is the truest reflection of PVP rank.

Solution?

Weighting each of the three categories for PVP: PVP level, Total Kills, and K: D ratio.

For starters, just an equal weighting would work, though you could adjust it so certain things are weighted more heavily. There was a gentlemen who actually developed a formula for this that I know and can contact. See his post here:

The idea is that each of 3 categories is weighted and scored and then totaled for an overall score, with the final rankings being based on that score.

Hey, this is a very good idea. We've decided to poll the community and see if we can come up with a nice weighted system after we get a lot more input on it. I'll post in this thread once we put together an official post.
