Coaches rate officials in the state I live in as well. Not only in baseball, but basketball, football, volleyball, softball also. It's certainly not the best system, but until someone comes up with a better one that's practical, sensible, and affordable, it'll have to do. And recently, our state has initiated an on-line rating system to get a higher percentage of schools to participate. That seems to be working rather well.
I don't put a lot of emphasis on the ratings from the coaches.....they often act on emotion vs. facts and also look at different things to rate that what many officials consider to be helpful.
Local associations are the best source for meaningful rating systems....if we can somehow find enough bodies to make it work.
