Load your stylesheet then reference the param using an XPath expression :
Replace 'sortvalue' by whatever your intended value is then transform the 
XML document as normal with your modified stylesheet.

oxmlStyleSheet=new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument");
oxmlStyleSheet.selectSingleNode("//xsl:param[@name='sortBy']").value=sortvalue;

(or >>>> )

oxmlStyleSheet.selectSingleNode("//xsl:param[@name='sortBy']").setAttribute("select",'date');

Depends on your question :-)

PS the XPath may not be exactly right for your document - please check and 
modify if necessary. Sorry if this was already answered - I was out all 
weekedn at a festival :-)
