Hello,
  Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't figure out a way to write an SQL query for the floowing requirements:

I have a table which holds accounts of customers. Now, the schema is as follows:

CUST_NAME, BRANCH_NAME, BALANCE, CUST_ID [ok, yes, it's not _actually_ like this, but this is the result of a join on some obviously normalized tables].

Now, I want to get a list of the TOP 10 Branches wrt. the number customers they have. How would I do that?

First I thought grouping or sorting would help, but sort on frequencey? How do I do that in SQL?
