Hey guys, I am trying to create a Top Site script, for those who do not know what this is , take a look at clipart.com
Most aspects of this are fairly simple to do , but there are a few things which are puzzling me, any help would be appreciated....

User data will all be on one line in a text file, one of the pieces of data will be the number of hits that site has brought in , how can i extract this from each line and get it to print them in order, highest to lowest.

I would also like to get the script to split the pages up , to say 20 accounts per page, i have no idea how to do this any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot guys,
John
