At this point, count seems to be a dictionary of address: count of lines

ncount is a single key-value pair. Why are you trying to sort ncount?
Do you want results ordered by count?
First, change your dictionary into a list of tuples:
ncount = [(a,c) for a,c in count.items()]
Then sort ncount on the second field of the tuple:
ncount.sort(key = lambda x: x[1], reverse=True)
print ncount
