The Nolan Chart
This is an adaptation of the Nolan Chart:

Basically, the more freedom you believe an individual should have economically, the higher you move up the right edge. The more freedom and tolerance that should be allowed an individual regarding their sexuality, morality, personal life, etc... the higher you move up the left edge.
The red dot is where John Spratt scores.
Obviously its very simplified and not perfect, but still helpful. (Also you can substitute "Populist" for "Authoritarian")
"Some of the chart's critics argue that the libertarian definition of freedom is flawed because it ignores the effects powerlessness and poverty have on liberty. Others argue that the associated political quiz is biased towards libertarianism or that the chart dismisses nonlibertarian values."
