Display posts list in table format with extra data

I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction with this.

I would like to display a list of post with extra data listed with the post.

IE.

TITLE / EXCERPT | DATE | RATING | # of comments | CATEGORY

How To Get Fat | 09/09/09 | ***** | 49 comments | Diets
First you eat lots |
of lard

To do this would I use

<?php
 $postslist = get_posts('order=ASC&orderby=title');
 foreach ($postslist as $post) :
    setup_postdata($post);
 ?>
<tr>
 <td><?php the_title(); ?></td>
 <td><?php the_excerpt(); ?></td>
 <td><?php the_date(); ?></td>
<td><?php comments_number('0','1','%'); ?></td>
<td><?php the_rating(); ?></td>
<td><?php the_author(); ?></td>
<td><?php the_category(); ?></td>
</tr>
 <?php endforeach; ?>

Also is there anyone who might know how to create a link that will change the php on the fly. So for example if someone clicks on “date” it will sort by date.

Basically either load a new php or replace “title” with “date”

$postslist = get_posts('order=ASC&orderby=<strong>title</strong>');

Thanks so much for any help,
