Hi Ed, As far as I understand, Cyrket just acts as a proxy, to forward your requests to the real Market in real-time, and merely display the results it obtains from there.
Many of your requests (sort results by rating, improve search function, ...) are beyond what the Market currently offers, hence I fear Cyrket is the wrong place to address these kinds of requests to... (it is like asking a mirror site to host more / better content than the original site).
