It would be very useful to somehow measure rationality and winning, so we could say something about the correlation.

Since in the local vernacular rationality is winning, you need no measures: the correlation is 1 by defintion :-/

Sometimes income is used as a proxy for winning.

It's a very bad proxy as "winning" is, more or less, "achieving things you care about" and income is a rather poor measure of that. For the LW crowd, anyway.
