Second, the data isn't quite representative until around 50% to 75% of the regional is complete. I have noticed that most of the OPRs are to the extremes when calculated early. As the regional progresses, the OPRs tend to settle into more valid ranges. By Friday night however, I am confident it will be fairly accurate and should do a good job in predicting the rankings.
Have you actually seen if OPR predicts better than a coin flip? I'd be curious at what point it exceeds the "pick random alliance" model or even the "pick alliance whose sum of rankings is lower" model.
