No, unfortunately I cannot create an array ref because the hash contains a list of articles identified by an MD5 hash, and each article has a title, a sub-title, a rank (number), a body, the number of visits per that article, and the number of comments, and a few other variables. And I want to sort by the number of visits in a case, then by the number of comments in other case, then by the rank, and so on, and I might need to sort the hash by more of these fields, so I guess I will follow the suggested ways.
