        url: "js/ajax.php",
        data: "id" + id, "score" + score,
        success: function(pass) {
                      // all ok
            if(pass == '1') 
                 $("#ok").show();
                      // something went wrong
            else if(pass == '2')

It sounds like you want to bind to the a and not the ul:

$('ul.star-rating').on('click', 'a', function() { // jquery 1.7+
  var score = this.className,
      ul = $(this).closest('ul'),
      id = ul[0].id;

  $.ajax({ 
        type: "POST",
        url: "js/ajax.php",
        data: {id: id, score: score}, // fixed formatting here
        success: function(pass) {
                      // all ok
            if(pass == '1') 
                 $("#ok").show().delay(5000).fadeOut(); // here is one way to do a fade out
                      // something went wrong
            else if(pass == '2') 
                 $("#wrong").show();
                         // you need to be logged in to vote
            else if(pass == '3') 
                 $("#loggedin").show();
        }
    });
    return false;
});

Note also the delay in your succes callback as one way to do a fade.

Obviously, you need to get the ID and the score.

The ID is from the UL, and can be gotten like so:

var id = $(this).closest('ul').attr('id')

The star rating is from the class, you're gonna need to get all the classes (if there are others added), and get the rating.

var liClass = $(this).attr('class').split(' '), score;
$.each(liClass, function(i,v){
    if(v.indexOf('-star') !== -1){
      score = v;
      return false;
    }
});
