Do you mean something like this?
sysuse educ99gdp, clear
set obs 11
replace country = "Total" in 11
qui sum pub
replace pub = r(sum) in 11
qui sum priv
replace priv = r(sum) in 11
generate total = private + public
graph hbar (asis) public private, ///
over(country, sort(total) descending) stack percent ///
title("Spending on tertiary education, by public and private", ///
span pos(11)) subtitle(" ") ///
note("Source: OECD, Education at a Glance 2002",span)
