I'm going to read up a bit on trust systems tomorrow and see how this might be doable in an anonymous way.

"Anonymous" would not be the correct term.  You'd rather talk about "pseudonymous" credit system.

Your pseudonym would be your GnuPG ID.

In an anonymous network, all nodes are equivalent and you can't tell them apart.  In a pseudonymous network, they are not, but you just don't know anything about them except their ID, which can be as meaningless as a random number.
