Hello Horacio,

if you have only one index item per page, than on the second level you 
can use \pagenumber for sorting:

A\index[arbol+\pagenumber]{arbol+rojo}\page
B\index[araña+\pagenumber]{araña+linda}\page
C\index[arbol+\pagenumber]{arbol+verde}\page
D\index[araña+\pagenumber]{araña+grande}\page
E\index[arbol+\pagenumber]{arbol+blanco}\page


The first level should be sorted alphabetically, because
1) you need to group index items according to first word (arbol, araña)
2) if the first item in the publication would start with "z", than you 
would have "Z" as the first letterhead in the register (according to 
what you want), not speaking about others, so you could get "Z G I E A N 
L ..." as an alphabet, and nobody would find anything.

Jano
