All I can say is that for me, ratings (like edits, color tags etc.) always 
survived a shutdown of the program. That is under Linux (OpenSuse, now Leap 
version 15.1).

It might help if you tell us what version of darktable, and what OS you are 
using (including version). Also any particulars about how you start darktable, 
where you store the database, etc., might be useful  (if different from 
default). Also, have you used another program to edit or rename the images?

You could also have a look at a few of the sidecar files, to check if the 
ratings are written there.
