There were no ties. The numbers you see are indeed rounded numbers, because the actual results of the formula resulted in a lot of numbers behind the decimal point. Once you get behind the top twenty, the differences between places become less and less, so that they are finally only a thousandth or a tenthousandth apart. For example, The difference between 40th place and 41st was only .0006.

I didn't actually have to do the figuring. All I did was create a small script that would read all reputations into a table, which I cut and pasted into an Excel spreadsheet. Then I created the forumulas and Excel did the rest. There is no way for you to look up your own result to this formula. Sorry.
