Elo Rating similiar to chess for multiplayer

I'm new to multiplayer and one thing that I thought might be useful would be a rating system that players can use to find opponents of equal ability. I can't imagine it would be hard to implement. Many historical battles may be unsuitable for ratings, but randomly generated skirmishes should work. Thoughts?

Also, anyone care for a game? :)
