Thanks to Phil Craven for pointing me to his PageRank explanation and PageRank calculator. It's a pretty advanced system for calculating the PageRank of a simple network of pages.
Of course, if you're interested in attack-resistant trust metrics like PageRank, than you should probably read Raph Levien's HOWTO which has some more technical explanation as well as source code for the PageRank algorithm.
