Was RotJ Luke a tier 9 during his rage amp?
I believe Gilliard said that RotS Anakin on invisible hand was an eight leading up to the saberlock, after which he became a 9 upon drawing from the darkside.
Would the same apply to Luke?

Considering Luke stomped Vader, a person appreciably ahead of Dooku, in a more emphatic manner than Anakin did to Dooku, and in a way that is echoed by more number of sources, yeah, rage amped Luke would certainly be a 9.
Normal ROTJ Luke would be an 8, since there are many sources, even recent ones that say that Luke and Vader were evenly matched(not that this wasn't evident from the fight itself) and Vader is definitely an 8, possibly a high 8.
Depends. Lucas said Vader was like Maul and Dooku whom were 8s. Lucas also says Vader vs. Luke and Anakin vs. Dooku were supposed to "rhyme" with each other with Anakin saying yes and Luke saying no in regards to the temptation of the Dark side.

Not that I recall. The novel does, however, state that Palpatine was "terrified" of Luke's power/potential... The novel also states that Luke instinctively used the force to repel Palpatine's FL for a moment.
So yeah...
