Ah, sorry I did not notice a sorted output was requested! This is the final
solution with sort capability!

```
<ul>
<$vars criteria="[all[tiddlers]surname<currentTiddler>count[]]">
<$list filter="[all[tiddlers]!is[system]each[surname]get[surname]]
+[!sortsub:number<criteria>]">
<li><$link/>(<$count filter="[all[tiddlers]surname<currentTiddler>]"/>)</li>
</$list>
</$vars>
</ul>
```
Note, this works in TW 5.1.23+



Best wishes
Mohammad
