How do "ties" get ranked?

I'm checking my stats on the Database and enjoying it thoroughly.  I'm a big believer in having concrete goals to shoot for and seeing my name on a list - at the bottom - really makes me want to move up that list.  I thought that it would be pretty obvious that if I (for instance) hit 13' on the WOB on January 1st and another guy did the same 13' but a day later, that his would be a spot lower on the lost.  In other words I thought it would be solely dependent on who did their performance first, or before another person.  I have seen quite a few entries that are the same distance but one person will be higher on the list than another person, although the one that is higher (closer to #1 spot) did their games after the other person.  Hope that makes sense.  It's definitely not something that I'm losing sleep over but it is intriguing.
