My rank stays the same every week but my score keeps moving. Is that a bug?

No, that is expected: rank and score measure different things. Rank is your ordinal position among the competitors that show up in a given result (1st, 2nd, 8th), while score is a composite built from position points across every prompt and engine you track, scaled with a square root so consistent top placement matters more than occasional appearances.
Your score can move week to week as the mix of prompts you win or lose shifts, even while your relative position against the same competitor set on the prompts you usually appear in stays flat. If you want rank itself to move, the lever is usually the prompt set (the questions where you are not yet beating that competitor) rather than anything about how the score is calculated.
