If you want to normalize amplitude, the rezound algorithm works just
fine, if you want to normalize loudness, then you want to use jamin,
or some other program that processes different frequency ranges
separately, since the human ear does not have a flat frequency
response, loudness is frequency dependent. In regards to measuring in
terms of RMS or not, someone else will have to address that.

The ReZound soundfile editor includes an Adaptive Normalize that "uses
an RMS level detector (defined by the window time) and adjusts the
amplitude inversely proportional to the signal level. As the level drops
the gain increases; as the level rises the gain decreases. There is also
a max gain limit so that silence does not get amplified by infinity
(when the maximum gain level is not being imposed). The formula is:
output = input*normalization level / current signal level
If Lock Channels is enabled the signal level will be calculated across
all selected channels which will preserve stereo phase."
But I'm not sure it's what you're looking for.
Best,
