No

I would not put any websites on my Resume. I will make reference to projects or applications I have done and other information that is readily applicable to the person reviewing the resume. My resume is a one page summary of me, I don't have room for the half dozen SO family accounts, LinkedIn, my blog, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Digg, Reddit, (you get the picutre).

Putting "I have XXX reputation on stackoverflow.com" is just like saying "I have 8.3k posts on myfavoriteforum.com." It's not professional. Deliberately pointing people elsewhere for information is also, in my view, wrong. What do you want to gain from adding a link to your LinkedIn profile? Work history? That should be on your resume. People you know? Connections? I guess it would be some indicator of how well you are known in the community, but honestly that information should be found elsewhere.

If they care, they can visit my website where I have an Imprint page linking to various online profiles. I get more referrals in regards to my blog then I do from my stackoverflow reputation ranking. I'm on page one of superuser.com but have never had someone drop me an email because of it. Reputation is great however it is not applicable to your job.

If I notice I'm writing an extraordinarily good answer to something I will turn it into a blog post. Sometimes I'll even turn it into a full blown application. This gets far more recognition and attention then crawling through your answers. My second highest rated answer on stackoverflowsecond highest rated answer on stackoverflow is a XKCD comic. My highest rated answer on programmers is an explanation of a brace. These are not answers I'm especially proud of or feel like I should show off.
