Just out of curiosity on what stack you build your work? The Ubuntu use
postgres/php/drupal if i got it right.


Bugzilla has a vote system on its own, with interesting ideas. Quote:

 You have been granted 10 votes. Each user can cast up to 10 votes for a
 single issue in this component. You can use all 10 of your votes for a
 single issue, preventing you from voting on any other issues.
 Alternatively, you may choose to apply 2 votes for a single issue,
 leaving you with 8 votes to cast on any other issues.

OpenOffice.Org is using it, randomly picked issue with votes:
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=44244

But imho its not visible enough. I didn't find some kind of top-list...
