As long as you are not tying the enhancement to a rating level, I don't think that would violate the policy.

Now telling whether or not someone actually rated the app is a different issue.

My apologies for recommending something against the market policies. I was not aware of that policy. I am just starting out, so I have not gotten that far in the process to actually put an app on the market.

BTW, I was not advocating making an offer for a better rating. I meant an incentive for the user to just rate the game.

        Could you release an update and offer something for the
        rating? Additional levels, characters, some way to personalize
the game for the user?

    Which is, of course, violation of market content policy terms
    (http://www.android.com/us/developer-content-policy.html  see
    "Spam and Placement" section: "Developers also should not attempt
    to change the placement of any Product in the Store by rating an
    application multiple times, or by offering incentives to users to
    rate an application with higher or lower ratings.")

    To OP, 1 rating for ca. 400-500 user is what I'm seeing in my free
    games, also take a quick look at other free games on market it's
    looks like this is more or less what you should expect.
