In case I dont want to write a plugin code for that, what is the option that
I am left with ?

As I see it, one of the solution is to add a new a ranking field and query
on the basis of ascending/descending values of the ranking filed.
To change the sort order change the value of the ranking field by
re-creating indexes. 

Is there any other way of doing it ?
