How does the Rank system work and what do they mean on this website?

Ranks are automatically distributed based on... reputation if I'm remembering correctly. As you gain Rep you'll level up in ranks. Reputation being earned primarily by getting a reaction to one of your posts. Looks like there's "Thanks","Laugh", "Sad", "Confused", and "Like". I believe they all count the same, but I'd personally steer away from being *that* guy that only gets sad/confused responses from people. The responses can be on any post btw, be it a file, photo album, status blerb, etc. In addition if you get the most likes/responses in a single day you will "win the day" which just ticks up a number on your profile and the last day you won will also be displayed on there.
