The somersd package, downloadable from SSC using the ssc command, can do
rank analyses on clustered data. The parameters estimated can be Somers'
D (the parameter behind the ranksum test), Kendall's tau-a, or median
differences, slopes and ratios. And the package is distributed with a
set of .pdf manuals.

In Stata, to see a description of the -somersd- package, type

ssc describe somersd

And, to install it, type

ssc install somersd, replace

And, to copy the manuals to your local folder, type

net get somersd.pdf
net get censlope.pdf
net get cendif.pdf

I hope this helps.

Subject: st: rank-sum test for clustered data

Dear all,

I am interested in performing a non-parametric test like -ranksum-  
using clustered data. I have -n- individuals and -a- observations per  
individual.
Is there an option for ranksum/nptrend/or a comparable analysis, which  
is comparable to -logit x y, cluster(n)-.

Many thanks and best regards,
Berthold
