The plugin uses this shortcode:
[wpa_myranks user_id="1"] So I tried this and it didn't work:
[wpa_myranks user_id="$spThisPostUser->ID"] Sorry, I'm not great at this. Should I have done something otherwise? I'm trying to get it to display here:

I have to admit I am not a shortcode man (or fan) but you wont get what you want - I think - with those quotes around the variable. Plus - as Steve demonstrated above - you need to make the full function call - just as he outlined.

Ok, removing the quotes is certainly getting me somewhere and it does not appear to be showing the correct rank based on the user who made the post. Just need to work on some sizing, etc.
Any idea how I could widen the section on the left that displays the users' info?

It's NOT showing the correct user? Check the ID being output... just echo that variable on it's own line in the template - you should find it equates to the user ID of the post author.

Sorry for the typo...it is displaying the correct user. Just need to make that section fit the width. Any way to widen that sidebar?

You can change the column widths if necessary. You will see them defined in that template in the spColumnStart() routines. But tread carefully. i do not have any idea what it is you are adding so I can't comment on it really. Can it not be made smaller with the right CSS styling?

Ideally I would love to make it smaller. Here's what the plugin is giving me:
Available Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| user_id | The ID of the user to get the rank for. If blank it defaults to current logged in user. |
| rank_image | Whether to show the rank image, if one is available. "True" to show or "False" to hide. If blank it defaults to true. |
| show_title | Whether to display the title: "My Rank". Example: "True" to show or "False" to hide. If blank it defaults to true. |
| title_class | This class will be added to the title and will allow the use of custom CSS. |
Examples
[wpa_myranks user_id="1" show_title="false" rank_image="true"]
[wpa_myranks user_id="2" show_title="true" rank_image="false" title_class="custom_title_class"]

Here is what it looks like. As you can see, I either need to shrink it somehow or widen the column:

If you are familiar with inspecting elements in your browser, you should be able to figure out what needs adjusting (normally right click > inspect element)
As Yellow Swordfish says, you can widen the column, but that would need to be almost doubled to accommodate, which would take up a lot of room!.. try inspecting and shout if you need further help
