It makes sense that reputation or date should sort descending, but name? I tested both /users and /tags and they sort reverse alphabetical, so Z before A. Is that by design or just a side effect of the default sorting being reputation in descending order?

Its by design. Default order is descending across the board, this includes lexicographic sorts.

It struck me as odd on names, but I can accept it is by design I suppose. Commented May 26, 2010 at 1:07

@Jim - if you want the "normal" ordering, just set
order=ascin the request. Commented May 26, 2010 at 1:30
