The average rating is displayed without any extra query, and this is why its "cached" in the user table. But to display the other info, that would need queries.

Well, for the detailed information, It could be on a seperate page. Just for example, "www.mywebsite.com/forums/karma.php?userid=123". This would keep any extra queries contained to a separate page. I know this may be beyond the scope of what your idea/goal of this mod is, but It's worth considering I think to make it a bit more flexible for a variety of situations.
