I'll admit that it's possible some local league somewhere has bizarro rules in place to handle ties.
However, from 20 years of working in numerous sports, I've never run across any league in any sport that would rank a 7-6-0 team equally with a 7-0-6 team.
Every league I've ever been involved with has either calculated winning percentage by considering a tie equal to 1/2 win (that covers about 95%), or an NHL-style points system (2pts for a win, 1 for a tie --- which is actually identical in result to the first method --- or 3 pts for a win, 1 for a tie).
If you consider professional leagues, NCAA conferences, NAIA districts, etc - ALL of them, with NHL/IHL hockey being an exception, consider a tie equal to half a win. (IE - these are not MY rules, as you state. These are very standard, and very consistently used rules)
If that's not good enough to answer the original poster's question, then I suppose nothing will be.
