Ask HN: Is there any way to rank stories on HN from sites based on votes?

(Excuse my noobness, please.)

Hi, I think you already know that when you click on the post link of a story, all stories from that top level domain appears.

If there is a video from YouTube, then, if I click on

    (youtube.com)

, then all posts having YouTube as a top level domain appears as result.

The API call looks like

    from?site=YouTube.com

But this is always sorted based on time of posting. Can this be changed?

Say, I want to see all stories from New Yorker, ranked based on votes those stories received, what do I do?

I know this part-

    https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=newyorker.com

But what more do I add to rank the result based on number of votes?

Or is there a completely different way to do this?
