The methodology of BW's PT rankings is much maligned, and hopefully they'll address some of the issues. This was the first time that BW ranked PT programs, and you'll notice that some of the top schools aren't even ranked because they declined to participate.
Historically, for PT rankings, I would venture to say that US News is probably the most prominent ranking organization. Forbes magazine also does a PT ranking, as do a few other national publications.
I've always had the opinion that the reputation of the PT programs is tied much more closely to the reputations of their associated FT programs than anything else. Whether the PT programs deserve the reputations is another story...
