It appears that any team that hasn't competed yet will get this rank, but there are a number of teams who have competed that all share this rank. Actually it looks like any team that has a CCWM that is >= 0 has a CCWM world rank of 329.

I'm not sure how to upload the file in a post, so if you would like to see it, I can email it to you.
You are absolutely right. The reason was any team who has not attended a regional will get a CCWM of 0.0. Teams that have a negative CCWM and registered for another regional will also have a CCWM of 0.0 because I was listing the best CCWM. It was an oversight on my part. I changed the formula so it is now showing the average CCWM but ignoring the 0.0 in calculating the average.
