Is it a random sort? If it is, use javascript. If not, I would do it with
xml/xsl.

Currently you get the values somehow from the server, right?  Could the
server send an xml file/stream instead of whatever it is sending for the
javascript? Then you would match the root element of the incoming stream and
:

<xsl:apply-templates>
  <!-- check out xsl:sort, there is more to it... -->
   <xsl:sort order="descending" select="aColumn"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>

Then your company would be further down the road to sweet XML goodness.

hope it helped,
Rob
