Does anyone have a shell or Perl script for BBEdit which will count identical lines in the front-most document and report the results?

Ideally, create a new text document with a listing of each unique line and the number of instances of that line, perhaps preceding that line so the results can be sorted by number of occurrences.

I've distilled my DNS server query log down to just the domain looked up and the type query (eliminating date, time, querying IP, etc.). Now I'd like to get a count of the lookups to see which are looked up most often.

I have a 'Count Identical Lines' AppleScript but with 1,112,000+ lines to be counted, I don't even want to attempt it.
