Wouldn't "most comments" be the obvious choice? I never did that but isn't it what OP wants?
Edit: I've tried it and it shows posts that are weeks old which makes sense. Maybe "most comments per day" would be cool but for now, "most comments" isn't that useful
It would be useful if there was a time setting on the "most comments sort" like there is on sorting by top. "Most comments today" or "this hour" would get you the most talked about posts, while "Most comments this year" might show the posts that reflect major events or at least thing which are culturally important to the fediverse at large.
