There isn't a blank line by the way - there is a thing grey separator. That's the same for all search results and it would be inconsistent to make geonames different.

As to sorting I've always assumed geonames returns them in some sort of order of what it thinks is most likely - this is an unusual case because normally most of the results would start with the string you entered so sort wouldn't do much. I'm not sure how it's chinese search is working that it returns such diverse responses...
