Default external.php quick question - latest replies, not newest threads?

I'm currently using the following code to show the latest threads from my forum on my main site.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mysite.com/forum/external.php?type=js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
CutOff = 16 // Number of maximum chars to cut off before adding '...'

	function cutOffTitle(title)
	{
		if (title.length > CutOff)
		{
			title = title.substring(0, 16) + '..'
		}
		
		return title
	}

	for (var i = 0; i < 7; i++)
	{
		document.write('<a href="http://www.mysite.com/forum/showthread.php?t=' + threads[i]['threadid'] + '">' + cutOffTitle(threads[i]['title']) + '</a><br />');
	}
//-->
</script>

My question is - what do I need to change/add to make the listings show the most recently updated threads? For example, if a thread is made, and then a week later somebody posts a new reply, it will show up in the list as the latest change to that thread. Because right now it merely shows the latest NEW threads.

If nobody really knows, could you direct me to a site/manual that shows all the options for external.php? I cant seem to find anything on it..

Vbulletin.com admins told me to come here. There's nothing in the manual about changing what it shows...
