Actually I think you are mistaken. All Alex is saying that your score will no longer increase when you cease playing. So, of course other people who are still working to increase their rank could pass you. Since the game is still new, rankings are probably still in a state of high flux. So, the highest ranking is probably increasing at a pretty quick pace. That will slow as people complete more games, and the rate of new players drops. However, even then it's true that the number 1 player could drop to, say, number 10 if they stop playing for a month, depending of course how hot the competition is.

This is an unfortunate but (I think) necessary aspect of any ranking system that they could have used for this game.
