This file will give you the ability to re-order the Dictionary in spotlight results again (broken in Lion and Mountain Lion).
Copy this file to ~/Library/Preferences/ (If Library is hidden, use the Finder menu Go -> Go To Folder... and put this in),
then open Spotlight Preferences, where you will notice a blank row which is the dictionary result.
You might have to move some things around in this list for the changes to be picked up.
Many thanks to this SO post for the answer: http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/22897/how-to-place-dictionary-definitions-higher-up-in-spotlight-results
