You are right, currently there is not much activity you can do other than suggesting and voting for niches. This activity will give you some reputation. Actually, you can draft a post and even "publish" it. But it won't be visible until the Beta in March. Nevertheless, there are already 255 posts in different niches waiting for kickoff.
You can also create forum posts, which is where I suspect most people are getting their reputations from at this time. You go to the website, click on Community, and join the forums. Unfortunately, you have to sign up for that separately. But once you do, you can tie your posts to your Niche, I believe. And you earn reputation points for your posts.
You don't think? How else can people be earning reputation scores? One individual has a 34, higher than the founder. How is that possible? Just be writing blog posts that aren't even published yet?
She mentioned that she voted on virtually every niche and probably suggested a number of niches. Also, she comments a lot on the suggested niches. That's how she earned her reputation, I believe.
Okay, so it's commenting on the niche suggestions. That makes sense. I know voting does a little bit too because my own reputation has gone from 0 to 3, but I haven't been super-active. I'm just now getting into it. Thanks a bunch.
Funny enough, I get +1 point to Simple rep for each approved niche that I suggested. The value changes several minues after the approval period ends. What will happen if somebody manages to sucessfully suggest more than 100 niches? )
The Quality analysis component is more tricky. At some point in time it boosted from 0 to 5 without any apparent reason and since then remains unchanged.

Not sure that it is linked. Forum accounts are totally separate, I don't think they can affect the reputation of the "main" account.
