st: Number of observantions in each of the cells of an N-Dimensional Array

["Julio Estevez" <je_123@hotmail.com>]

Hi everyone

I am interested in ranking and displaying the number of observantions that 
are present in each of the cells of an N-Dimensional Array.

For example if I have a 2x3x2x5 array  I have 60 cells each of them having a 
number of observacions. I need to list all of them showing first the most 
populated cells. For low dimensional arrays i may just use tabcount amd 
count the values. However for higher dimensional arrays this may be 
cumbersome.

Is there any command in stata that can do that? If not, can somobody help me 
programming it? Pushing my luck a little further... I will need to do this 
expanding the observations according to some weighting factor.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Julio
