FQL: Order photos by likes

Question

Is there anyway to retrieve photos ordered by the number of likes in FQL?

Answer 1

So, I'm guessing this is impossible to do nicely? Here's the ugly solution:

$fql = "SELECT object_id,src_small,link FROM photo WHERE aid = '2389563453799923709' ORDER BY created DESC";
        $param  =   array(
            'method'    => 'fql.query',
            'query'     => $fql,
            'callback'  => ''
        );

        $photos = $facebook->api($param);

        if (count($photos) > 0) { 
            for ($i = 0; $i < count($photos); $i++) {
                $objectId = $photos[$i]['object_id'];
                $like_count = $facebook->api('/'.$objectId.'/likes');
                $photos[$i]['likes'] = count($like_count['data']);
            }
        }

        function cmp($a, $b) {
            if ($a['likes'] == $b['likes'])
                return 0;
            return $a['likes'] > $b['likes'] ? -1 : 1;
        }

        usort($photos, 'cmp');
