Just based on my own experience, a high rep on StackOverflow might only mean that you were the first to ask newbie questions, and/or you made the first good answers to newbie questions. you could have some excellent questions and answers on topics out of the mainstream, or on problems that only experts ever run into, and they won't score highly simply because nobody is looking for them. I'm certainly not proud of my highest rep answers.
