Custom field sorting

I have popularity plugin dzd_counter_view. It makes +1 to the custom_field_2 every view. It works well, but when i want to sort the list of articles like this:

<txp:article_custom section="article" sort="custom_2 desc" listform="test_custom_field_sort" limit="50" />

I have this output:

Article ID=72 - custom_field name="countxx"=9 
Article ID=86 - custom_field name="countxx"=9 
Article ID=87 - custom_field name="countxx"=9 
Article ID=89 - custom_field name="countxx"=9 
Article ID=189 - custom_field name="countxx"=9 
Article ID=190 - custom_field name="countxx"=9 
Article ID=24 - custom_field name="countxx"=7 
Article ID=85 - custom_field name="countxx"=7 
Article ID=191 - custom_field name="countxx"=7 
Article ID=194 - custom_field name="countxx"=7 
Article ID=84 - custom_field name="countxx"=6 
Article ID=160 - custom_field name="countxx"=6 
Article ID=192 - custom_field name="countxx"=6 
Article ID=193 - custom_field name="countxx"=6 
Article ID=195 - custom_field name="countxx"=6 
Article ID=32 - custom_field name="countxx"=5 
Article ID=35 - custom_field name="countxx"=5 
Article ID=243 - custom_field name="countxx"=4 
Article ID=170 - custom_field name="countxx"=32 
Article ID=30 - custom_field name="countxx"=27 
Article ID=34 - custom_field name="countxx"=22 
Article ID=14 - custom_field name="countxx"=20 
Article ID=70 - custom_field name="countxx"=19 
Article ID=29 - custom_field name="countxx"=18 
Article ID=234 - custom_field name="countxx"=18 
Article ID=171 - custom_field name="countxx"=17 
Article ID=33 - custom_field name="countxx"=16 
Article ID=135 - custom_field name="countxx"=16 
Article ID=161 - custom_field name="countxx"=16 
Article ID=196 - custom_field name="countxx"=16 
Article ID=36 - custom_field name="countxx"=15 
Article ID=90 - custom_field name="countxx"=15 
Article ID=131 - custom_field name="countxx"=15 
Article ID=26 - custom_field name="countxx"=14 
Article ID=23 - custom_field name="countxx"=13 
Article ID=163 - custom_field name="countxx"=13 
Article ID=31 - custom_field name="countxx"=12 
Article ID=91 - custom_field name="countxx"=12 
Article ID=28 - custom_field name="countxx"=11 
Article ID=13 - custom_field name="countxx"=10 
Article ID=21 - custom_field name="countxx"=10 
Article ID=22 - custom_field name="countxx"=10 
Article ID=132 - custom_field name="countxx"=10

Visit this special page to see “in action” the work of sorting. At the first sight it seems to be similar to the Windwos Explorer’s sorting…

Is this bug fixable?

P.S. test_custom_field_sort form listing:

<a href="<txp:permlink />">
Article ID=<txp:article_id />
</a> - custom_field name="countxx"=<txp:custom_field name="countxx" />
<br />

Re: Custom field sorting

Try using: sort="custom_2 + 0 desc"
