Sorting facets

[Walter Lewis]

My apologies if this has been answered before but I couldn't see it in 
the FAQ, tutorial or wiki or the solr-user mail archives.

The explanation for sorting the documents returned by a search is quite 
straight foward. I'm currently seeing the facets arriving in a more 
random order.

Is the expectation that the code processing the result will apply its 
own sorts to the facet lists?  or is there some other option I'm 
overlooking?
