Standing in a rank (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

status

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'standing' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a rank' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for status that I've seen before include "Facebook feature" , "Rank or standing in society" , "Class" , "Position in society etc" , "Situation as it was before" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
