Pagination through array

Hi,

I am trying to create ranking page which is based on user points.

For now I have around 5000 users who are counted and added to freemarker array. I am sorting array by points and I have problem with pagination.

I have proper pages count but every page sorts array based on offset and I get sorted elements which is fine but instead of sort 5000 elements it sorts 10 or 20 depends on offset.

Is there a way to create one array and paginate through sorted results?

<@component id="common.widget.pager" pageableItem=pageable_item />

 I would like to achieve something like this:
kudos/leaderboardpage/timerange/one_month/page/1/tab/authors

There is a pagination but results are sorted globally.
