Using histogram (or cghistogram) to get top X percent of distribution? [message #92620]

I'm not sure if this is just me not quite understanding how histogram works.

I have a large array containing data. I want to identify the array indices of the top 10% (for example) of the data. I thought I should be able to use histogram to do this quickly but can't figure out how.

Any help much appreciated as always :-)
