WP-PostRatings Auto Category?

My goal here is to have a list of highest rated posts appear in the sidebar — but only those posts that are relative to the category that is being browsed.

Here is the code to show the highest rated reviews for category 3:

<?php if (function_exists(‘get_highest_rated_category’)): ?>

<?php get_highest_rated_category(3, ‘both’, 10); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

Is it possible to apply a cat ID template tag to the first “3” variable so the ratings category will default only to the category that is being viewed?

Otherwise I can create a bunch of custom category pages (ie category-3.php, category-4.php, etc) with custom sidebars — but that seems like overkill.

Thanks!
