Brazil have played no competitive matches. Points are earned from them not friendlies. Brazil wont play a competitive game until the World Cup Finals in 2014 as hosts. That reason they are dropping down the rankings.

Ok forgot that but not enough games compared to say England ( European teams) who'll play 10 over 2 years (qualifying games) for World Cup and who would played about the same in qualifying games for Euros then the games in the Euro finals. It stupid but way it is.
