To correct the answer above, rooks are worth 10 points TOTAL...5 points each. The queen is the most valuable piece on the board (beside the King of course).
pawn - 1
knight/bishop - 3 (some say the bishop is actually worth 3.5)
rook - 5
queen 9
Which means that 2 rooks would be worth slightly more than a queen. A rook and a knight or bishop would be worth slightly less than a queen material wise.
However, to keep "score" during an actual game of chess you also need to take into account things like space occupied, time (i.e. when you are able to develop you pieces while making your opponent constanly retreat one of his you are gaining a "time advantage" on him), as well as material advantage. Which means, there are times when you may actually have a material advantage, yet in the eyes of an experienced player still be "losing."

You don't score any points. You just play to win.

If you win a game you receive 1 point.
If you tie the game you receive 0.5 points
If you lose the game you receive 0 points.

It depends on which piece. The queen is worth seven, pawns are worth one, knights are worth three, bishops are worth three, and rooks are worth ten.
