The Python output uses nested dictionaries for facet counts. I read it online that Python dictionaries do not preserve order. So when a string is eval()'d, the sorted order is lost in the generated Python object. Is it a good idea to use list to wrap around the dictionary? This is only needed for the fields, sorted by counts.
