Just insert <xsl:sort> at the right place, here is where you have to:

$ diff -c2 doit.xsl doit.sort.xsl
*** doit.xsl    Tue Jul 28 09:38:50 2009
--- doit.sort.xsl       Tue Jul 28 09:41:16 2009
***************
*** 16,19 ****
--- 16,20 ----
                     fromSize="{$from}" toSize="{$to}">
        <xsl:for-each select="/KeywordsInfo/KeywordsEntry">
+         <xsl:sort/>
          <xsl:variable name="kentry" select="." />
          <xsl:for-each select="keyword[@size=$from]">

$

You may want to consult the spec (default is " select='.' ") which is
exactly what you want:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#sorting


Btw,:
I realized that some IBM email gateway seems to modify my submitted
stylesheets up to being non-XML. I already got confirmation from
xsl-list owner that for the last post I saw this the email reached the
list modified. "doit.xsl" is the stylesheet I submitted last time,
and "doit.save.xsl" is what I just saved via copy and paste from the
old post, here is the strange diff:

$ diff doit.xsl doit.save.xsl
2c2
< xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
---
> xmlns:xsl=".http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";;>
3a4

<     <MainWordInput xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
---
>     <MainWordInput xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";;
20c21
<           <xsl:variable name="fromkw" select="." />
---
>           <xsl:variable name="fromkw" select="." />>
