Suggestion App store search by user rating Am I alone iPhone

When I search for apps on the iTunes app store, theres typically so many that I want to see the ones that are rated the highest first. Am I alone in this view? At the very least there should be an option to sort the list.
Google became the king of search in large part because they put such heavy ranking emphasize on third party links which is the webs way of rating a site as good. Why does Apple not do the same thing with its user ratings on the app store? As far as I can tell, the rankings are not influenced much at all by the app ratings which forces me to scan multiple pages looking for the best rated ones.

Is this the best way to post this suggestion to Apple or is there a better place? Anyone know if this enhancement is planned?
