Konstantinos, My name is Cameron and I am a committer on the Apache OODT project. I am not familiar with the internals of crawler, but I don't believe there is a way to accomplish your goal of enforcing a sorting algorithm within the crawler config. I think you will have to write your own crawler that will implement your sorting logic.
