I recently coded a system to suggest like-minded users and adversaries using voting_api. It's not yet a module, but if there's enough interest, I'll make a module out of it. See the details here.

Recommendation Engine
Hi there,
This is really cool! Simple but effective.
What I've noticed in the Drupal world is that modules which require additional software (R) don't gain much momentum. If you aren't worried about being super-popular, it would be cool to set it up.
I have built a recommendation engine using Google Analytics data (page visits rather than upvotes) loaded into Neo4J with Python. Then, I load the recommendations (links) into a block using JSON. However, it's too custom to really be useful to others.
thx
There's actually some code in libmath linked into most PHP implementations that would allow to calculate correlation. So, the stats part should be rather fast when done in PHP. Data layer will be much slower if done over RDBMS.
