 Currently, there's some fuzzy logic while sorting plugins and themes.
 Sorting by popularity seems to be reset I'm guessing on every major WP
 version update, which I guess is fair, in which case the problem is just
 missing the proper description of the sort option.

 However, while sorting by rating, nothing really makes sense of the
 bizarre sort order there. ( [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/browse
 /top-rated Top Rated Themes] )

 Even while searching for a keyword, and sorting by "rating," the
 [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=slideshow&sort=top-rated
 bizarre sorting ensues].

 WordPress.org should be a shining example of what WordPress can do, and
 nail it.
