If I understood your requirement, you want to get maximum of a stream of values. Then you can use a register with a bit of logic(assuming your stream is reg1 with positive values only): 


process(reset,clk)
begin
if reset  = '1' then
    reg2 <= (others => '0');
elsif rising_edge(clk) then
   if reg1 > reg2 then
      reg2 <= reg1;
   end if;
end if;
end process;

Good luck with your scores
