Here's bearophile's version of sorting an AA by value [1]

void main() {
     import std.stdio: writeln;
     import std.algorithm.sorting: multiSort;
     import std.array: array;

     const size_t[string] wCount = [
         "hamster": 5,
         "zorro": 80,
         "troll": 90,
         "algorithm": 80,
         "beer": 80
     ];

     auto pairs = wCount.byKeyValue.array;
     assert(wCount.length == pairs.length);
     pairs.multiSort!(q{a.value > b.value}, q{a.key < b.key});
     assert(pairs[2].key == "beer");
     foreach (const ref it; pairs)
         writeln(it.key, ": ", it.value);
}

Should we add it to the documentation of

1. http://dlang.org/phobos/std_algorithm_sorting.html#.multiSort
2. http://dlang.org/hash-map.html

I think it's quite a common task and people will duckduckgo or 
google for it.
