Now, if the "49" route of the first provider is cheaper, my system (a2billing) will still use the more expensive "4930" code because it is more specific.
There is a great deal of wisdom in this approach that you may wish to consider carefully before abandoning. It is especially true in Europe, and really, anywhere outside the North American environment, which it doesn't sound like you're in to begin with.
Calls to mobile operators, as well as certain premium number allocation prefixes, can be many times more expensive than calls to fixed-line operators. If 4945 were a mobile prefix that was three times more expensive than the overall +49 rate offered by the same provider, are you absolutely certain that you want to use the +49 rate?
Even if you have some vendor that gives you a blended overall rate for +49, and you want to cherry-pick expensive routes off their blended rate plan, that still means you need to sort by longest prefix (descending) to know what you're comparing it against.
