Comparing info in a Collection -

I am currently using a collection to store data about products. I want to compare fields in 2 different collection items, and then sort by which has the greatest number in the collection item that is being compared. For example I have:

Collection Item 1 has a field names matches
Collection Item 2 has the same
Collection Item 3 has the same

I want to figure out which one has the greatest value in the matches field and show that collection Item

Thank you,
Corey
