Actually, we don't have that... I just looked at the spec, we only
have a priority attribute for <components/> and <component/> tags.
In any case, wouldn't it make more sense to have the server suggest an
ordering by returning the reviews in a specific order, and have the
client decide if it wants to keep the ordering? I would, for example,
likely order the reviews by date and karma.
What exactly do you mean with "score"? The "karma" value in your
previous example?

Cheers,
