If someone wants to boost their league position by playing every minute of every day then why not have win/loss data available next to their accumulated points which could then be used to calculate their real worth.
Yes, the two rank systems are completely separate. League Position is more of an indicator of activity, while the hidden ranking is your actual skill.

The only visible indicators of your hidden ranking are the Top 200 List (which only show the top 200, obviously) and which League you are in. The problem is that there are only 5 leagues, and 80% of the players are in the bottom two. Which league you are in is very misleading. You could be a Clever player (2nd league) and actually be in the top 25% of all Outwitters players. A Gifted player is in the top 20%, while a Master-level player is in the top 5% of the entire player-base.

Also, people wouldn't want to see win:loss ratios, because the system tries hard to average your wins:losses to 50:50. That's a little depressing to look at all the time.
