How do you sort topics/posts via the API?

^ Sorts by topics by newest-oldest as default. I'd like to be able to sort by oldest - newest and most post as well... but I can't find any documentation on how I can do this.

It appears as though it's based on what the user last selected. So there would be no way to do it via the api right now as far as I can tell.

Could this be added to the API?

Seems like a reasonable endpoint.

Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing.
