Try this:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my %value;
for (<DATA>){
chomp;
$value{$_}++ if $_;
}
my $max = (sort map { $value{$_} } keys %value)[-1];
for my $count (1..$max){
for (sort keys %value){
print "$_\n" if $value{$_} >= $count;
}
}
__DATA__

Update:
For an uneven list as those
Frankus mentions, this will work according to his first example, ie:
2
2
2
3
3
3
4
4
5
Will return:
2

You can make it work like his second example by reversing the loop:
for my $count (reverse 1..$max){
Update (2): Got rid of pesky newlines per katgirl.
