I am trying to avoid sorting at any cost, I will first take a look at details on how to compile mod_log_config as you suggested. Now how do I make sure buffered logs are not turned on?

This messes up the whole script. Anybody > know how to fix this? Sort your file before passing it to the script? Even apache 1.3 can have out-of-order log file lines; it is just less common. Apache 2.0 logs the time a request was received, so it will obviously log requests out of order if they take different times to be served. If you really hate this, you can use the pre-processor define I_INSIST_ON_EXTRA_CYCLES_FOR_CLF_COMPLIANCE when compiling mod_log_config. But, as I said, there is still a possibility of out-of-order log lines. See the comment in mod_log_config.c for more details. You'll also want to make sure you haven't turned on buffered logs, of course.
