You're guaranteed Legendary at 1030 activity (I think; I'm writing this from memory), IF you have 1000 merits. So you're almost there with the activity, but you still need the merits. I suspect by the time you get that 1000th merit, you'll turn legendary at the next activity period. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Edit: So IF you had the 1000 merits, you might be Legendary at this point, but it wouldn't be guaranteed. I had to wait until about 1020 activity before I got that status, and that was before the merit system *whew*.
