in thread Getting Max Value from Different Hashes

Corion's solution solves the problem - the OP never talks about knowing where the winner value comes from, and his working-but-inefficient-and-inelegant (OP's words!) solution proves this IMHO. Maybe you got misleaded by his example:
300 # from z

Update: stroke fool observation. I'll read the whole answer next time :)

perl -ple'$_=reverse' <<<ti.xittelop@oivalf

Don't fool yourself.

    frodo72,
    Perhaps you missed the bottom sentence where I stated that after re-reading the question 3 times I was no longer under the impression that the comment was anything more than a comment. It was small and an after-thought and easily missed.

    Cheers - L~R

      Yes, definitively. Sorry :)
