Gnugo is around 10 kyu if I remember correctly.  This strength is reached by a 
player after approximately a year if you play regularly.

However, you can make gnugo weaker by using the --level option is I remember 
correctly.  Perhaps kigo could make a nice interface for that so the user can 
select "easy", "medium" and "dabbling" (there is no real "hard" setting for 
gnugo :-) ).
