[development] Ranking in a query

Thanks, but that doesn't do what I want. What I need is the row number that 
results from this query (simplified for example).

SELECT c.mail, COUNT(c.cid) AS comment_count FROM comments c WHERE c.mail <> '' 
GROUP BY c.mail ORDER BY comment_count DESC

And remember that pager_query is going to add LIMIT xxx, 10.

I have a query that counts comments and all is well with it. But I'd like add a 
ranking column to the display. The problem is that it uses tablesort, so the 
ranking has to be in the query because I don't know which column will be used to 
sort the display. Oh, it is also paged so I can't count on the first row being 
#1 and so on.   Has anyone got an idea on how to add a ranking column to the 
query? (MySql only.)

Nancy, here's a query that returns a nid, and it's row position:

SELECT @row := @row + 1 as row, n.nid FROM node n, (SELECT @row := 0) r;

You can start from there.
