Tried a few things here based on researching a few different solutions. Tile ended up being the one I used because it was completely new and in the end I had to take a look at another users use to get my head around it!

Sort by sount > Tile the count to add rank (leave unsorted) > Filter top 5 > Select and rename

Hi everyone
below I am attaching my solution.

To solve the question I used three tools:

1)   Sort tool to sort the data in descending order;

2)   Formula Row tool to create the rank column  based on the following formula:

     IIF([count] != [Row-1:count], [Row-1:Rank] + 1 , [ROW-1:Rank] ) 

3)   Filter tool, to filter data based on rank

 

 

In my opinion, a specific tool should be created, to create classifications and rankings, perhaps with the possibility of considering multiple fields, or formulas
Especially for Top and Bottom (N) analysis

A nice excuse to use the multirow formula to generate the ranking:

so, I got two methods in my solution.

The first one needs more tools, the second one needs more RAM, I suggest the first one, it is easier and better than another.
