The articles are numbered based on the order they appear in the feed.
This could be changed, however there is no requirement to place feed
items in a chronological order in Atom (or other feed formats AFAIK), so
this would "fix" this for some feeds while "breaking" it for others.
I think it would be better to just explicitly sort by date in this case.
