There is a Nyquist plugin here that uses a “similar loudness” algorithm:  
[ReplayGain plug-in](https://forum.audacityteam.org/t/replaygain/22589/1) Make sure you get the “New Version” in that post.

See here for how to install Nyquist plugins: [Missing features - Audacity Support](http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Download_Nyquist_Plug-ins#install) .
