Tagometer

I’m trying to add the new Tagometer http://del.icio.us/help/tagometer to my loop but I’m having a problem extracting the Post ID from within the loop. I’m customizing through – http://consumingexperience.blogspot.com/2006/12/delicious-tagometer-howto-manual-mode.html Everything works except the post ID, I’m using WordPress 2.

<div class=\”delicious-blogbadge-line\” id=\”badge-“.the_id().”\”><script type=\”text/javascript\”>Delicious.BlogBadge.register(‘badge-“the_id().”‘, ‘”.get_permalink().”‘, ‘”.get_the_title($id).”‘);</script></div>

I keep getting the post id number at the top of the post instead of in the tagometer code. Any suggestions?
