Question:
I am looking for a bike rack for a 2013 acura tsx sport wagon - perhaps one that mounts on a hitch but still lets me open the tailgate?

I do recommend a trailer hitch mount bike rack for your 2013 Acura TSX Sport Wagon. If you do not already have a trailer hitch, the most popular option is # C11496. I have included a link to a video showing a typical installation and a link to the instructions for you.
For a Class I compatible bike rack that will tilt down and allow better access to the rear of the vehicle I recommend the Thule T2 Pro XTR # TH23JV. This is a platform style bike rack that fits 1-1/4 inch hitches (Class I and Class II). It can tilt with the bikes still loaded. I have included a link to a video review of this bike rack for you.
