I wouldn't set the bar that low. Some people around here have huge amount of rep power, easily granting several levels. 100 per level wouldn't be unrealistic, then 150 for the next level, and so on. To get to the max, say 10 as you suggested, I think it should ake quite some time, so you should ALWAYS have something to work towards. This is just my thoughts however....
Another thing I thought of, is each post you condtribute in that forum could be worth 1 point of 'rep' towards this badge. This way, you can work towards it, without halving to cross your fingers and hope someone reps you. Using Rep helps though, because it should also increase the quality of the post, and reduce double posting and spamming (something the mods should be onto anyway...)
As for the programing, I'm thinking it would be like how Enhanced was. After a certain amount of rep, forum participation etc, you got the badge. However, like you, I don't know much about the progaming.
