if you want to keep keys:

uasort($data, function($a, $b){ return ($a->rating > $b->rating); });

if you don't

usort($data, function($a, $b){ return ($a->rating > $b->rating); });

function aasort (&$array, $key) {
    $sorter=array();
    $ret=array();
    reset($array);
    foreach ($array as $ii => $va) {
        $sorter[$ii]=$va[$key];
    }
    asort($sorter);
    foreach ($sorter as $ii => $va) {
        $ret[$ii]=$array[$ii];
    }
    $array=$ret;
}

aasort($your_array,"rating");

yuo can use php function usort.

You should provide your function to implement you sort critiria. For example

 function your_sort($a, $b)
 {
     return $b['rating'] - $a['rating'];
 }

 your_sort($array, "cmp");

Take care that the items of the array seems to be objects, and that the "rating" property is a string that should probably be converted into numeric.

function f_my_sort($a, $b) {
  if ($a->id==$b->id) return 0;
  return ( intval($a->rating) < intval($b->rating) ) ? -1 : 1;
}

usort($my_array, "f_my_sort");
