I have googled a bit to find if there are existing formulas for a
computed score, but didn't find anything really profound.
Here is somebody who also proposes using a linear function:

Request tracker uses a hyperbolic function:

Maybe a hyperbolic function would be the best fit. You can put it
piecewise together so that it's similar to the -arctan(x) function:
Piecewise[{{1/(x-1)+2, x<0}, {1/(x+1), x>0}}]
You can enter that formula into http://www.wolframalpha.com to see how
the function looks like. It would be 1 for tasks due today, going down
to zero for tasks due in the future, and going up to 2 for long overdue
tasks. Then you could weigh the date contribution with a factor and sum
it up with the other contributions for the score.
