Weighted averages actually skew the numbers much more. If you have one regular with 10k hands who plays very tight this will completely overwhelm the other players at the table - if they only have 100 hands but play really loose (for example) the table would look tight using weighted averages, while actually being pretty loose overall.

I guess u are right. The database am currently running is quite small, that's why the example you mentioned is unlikely to happen.
Other question:
would it be possible to have TT-score as an available stat to be used when defining an own scoring?

Do you mean you want to build your own score using the value of the built-in score?

Yes, I think the auto-scoring is a great thing and the TT score is extremely valuable.
Could be optimized imho for specific opponent types
