sorting on multiple fields

```auto
sort=[
    {
      followersCount: {
        order: 'desc'
      }
    },
    {
      averageRating: {
        order: 'desc'
      }
    },
    {
      _geo_distance: {
        coordinates: [
          lng,
          lat
        ],
        order: "asc",
        unit: "km",
        distance_type: "arc",
        ignore_unmapped: true
      }
    },
  ]
