How to perform an inverse ranking for less is better purposes, eg: P/E, Price/Book Value.

PE:
Close/GetData("mstar","eps ttm",LastData)

I have 10 yrs MorningStar Fundamental Data, am I using the right way to do it?
Any difference between using LastData and ignore this parameter?

You simply rank for minus the factor.

Example:
"-close" to perform an inverse ranking of the close price

I put it this way:
-1*( Close/GetData("mstar","eps ttm",LastData))

Is it same as your answer?
And what is the result if i ignoring LastData parameter?

Yes exact.

If you put "Zero" for example instead of "LastDate" then when "eps ttm" data is not available for a particular date, the function "GetData" will return 0 instead of the last available value.

You should plot that on a chart to see the difference.
