Answer 1

This will give you html output sorted (and as a convenience, display it immediately in the browser):

wmic process get name, workingsetsize /format:htable.xsl:"datatype=number":"sortby=WorkingSetSize" >table.html && table.html

(should be entered as single line at cmd prompt)

While I admit this is probably not exactly what you want it shows wmic output format extensibility and does not depend on any other tool/utility. If you need pure text output, you could for example tweak one of the included stylesheets or write your own xsl transform to format/sort the data.
