in three days, the number of women rating my profile highly has gone from 61 to 113.

Wait a moment... How long did it take to go from 0 to 61? How long hadn't you logged into OkC before writing that? Maybe the increase is due to more people finding your profile when looking for people “Online today” or “Online this week”?

Alas, there are no loopholes here. 0-61 took almost exactly a year (it would have been more like 10 months, but you lose the votes of people who deactivate their profiles), and I was logging in at least weekly, usually more, during that time.
