It's quite the opposite, you just aren't looking at the correct "what" of this rank.

This is technically correct, as "awful" as it sounds to you. Your rank isn't based on how far you've "climbed the ladder" - it's based on how your best scores stack up to the best scores of others. If someone else new comes along and takes rank 1 as OWA stated, then EVERYONE would drop down a rank because they've moved in at the number 1 spot. It's purely based on your performance with your top scores compared to others' top score performances, not "how hard you've tried" ("average rank") or "how much time you've invested" ("grandtotal rank").
