WordPress search is already sorted by date, most recent first. If that’s not what you’re looking for, you’re out of luck without using plugins and/or editing source code. So no, (taking a guess here) you can’t pass URL parameters to a search on a 3rd party WordPress site to change the info you get back.
This quote from Joost de Valk, one of the leading WordPress gurus out there, from his site yoast.com
That article is mainly on how to improve the search functionality of your own site.
I’ve made some modifications on the Search Unleashed plugin, it’s the best one I’ve found and is pretty customizable
I believe this plugin will allow you to sort by date: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search/
Hope it helps!
