Sort categories by total posts in hierarchy?

  1. I have my categories in my sidebar sorted by "count", in descending order. However, the count for categories with sub-categories doesn't include the counts of each sub-category. Can this be changed?
    For instance:

    Cat1: 6 posts
    Cat2: 3 posts
    - Cat2A: 20 posts
    - Cat2B: 7 posts

    ... It seems like Cat2 should count as having 30 posts, and be sorted above Cat1... but it ain't. Is this possible?

    The blog I need help with is zoomy.net.
