No, that's passed via POST, not GET.

Ahhh, neat-o: lots of numpad keys.  I like * for 100!  :)

The . key (labeled Del on most keyboard today) or the / key might also work
nicely for un-submitting a rating.  To unsubmit a rating, simply pass the
empty string to rate.cgi where you would normally pass 0 to 100.  Maybe + and
- would also work for adjusting your own rating up or down by tens or units...?
