Give every eligible voters 10 Points. And let them decide how to spread. 1 Point to each application, 6 Points for the favorite and 4 for the next favorite or all 10 Points for the one and only application you've elected. In my opinion a good thing to get more balanced results.
Again, I must say the maemo.org council voting mechanism solves this as well , though you don't give points per se, but you order your choices, so it's not only your 'best' vote that counts, but 2nd, 3rd picks, too. Making your points spread per wish is usually not a good idea as just a few voters who go all-in on a single app can change the outcome completely.
