I want to say no? It appears to be the first since they started keeping track with the award medallions though. (Unless someone is willing to come forward and show me otherwise...)

Before they were awarding those medals, I tried to keep track of our rankings informally from time to time. You need to make it into the top 830 in the world to be in the top 1%. I thought I remembered people making it into the 790s from time to time. I may be remembering wrong though. Plus, the total nations in the world has been as low as 66000 in the past years, which increases the burden on us. I could be remembering correctly about somebody making 790, but if it happened at a time the global population was at a low mark, we still wouldn't make the top 1%.
