Powershell format-table or select-object only show top results

Question

I am trying to find users that have been sending the most emails. But in the end I only want to display the top 10 (or n number) of senders. Is there a way to only show the top results using select-object or format-table

$Messages = Get-ExchangeServer * | where{$_.ServerRole -eq "HubTransport"} | %{get-messagetrackinglog -server $_.name -EventID "SEND" -Start (get-date -format G).AddDays(-1) -ResultSize unlimited}) 2>&1 | out-null

$messages | where{$_.sender -like "*@OurDomain.com*"} | select sender | group sender | sort count -Descending | ft count,name

Is there a way to make this only display the top results?

The only way I can think of would be storing them in a variable and outputting them in a for loop

Solution

Before the ft, add:

select -first 10

Replacing the 10 with how many you want.

So the full command would be:

$messages | where{$_.sender -like "*@OurDomain.com*"} | select sender | group sender | sort count -Descending | select -first 10 | ft count,name
