Sort popular

[Ori Idan]

The spec. says that a feed with the sort popular relation should be sorted according to popularity, but how do I know which item is more popular? is there a directive like <update> for popularity?

These popular/new link relationships are just a hint about the way items are sorted, there's no real definition of what makes an item more popular than another.

I guess we need some method of defining popularity of items, don't you think so?

Not really. This is just a hint and it's far more useful if there's no absolute definition. 

For example one store might rank books based on sales for a week, another might do the same but using sales for the month + a restriction based on the user's territory etc.
