HN karma is not publicly associated with dated posts, (I think only the account holder can see that)
But account creation date and total karma are public, so some derivation is possible.
Something like:
ranking_periods = number of 52 week spans in HN account lifetime
avg_k_per_rp = Accumulated (total) Karma / RP
Living Karma = AK - avg_k * RP
Curious if this makes sense / there are better ways to do it w public info.
If the private info were avail, it could drop karma from archive link comments, etc.
