IQ tests are built on item response theory, where people’s IQ is measured in terms of how difficult tasks they can solve. The difficulty of tasks is determined by how many people can solve them, so there is an ordinal element to that, but by splitting the tasks off you could in principle measure IQ levels quite high, I think.
