Print number of lines for files in directory, also print number of unique lines

I have a directory of files, I can show the number of lines in each file and order them from lowest to highest with:

Code:
wc -l *|sort

15263 Image.txt
16401 reference.txt
40459 richtexteditor.txt

How can I also print the number of unique lines in each file?

Code:
15263 1401 Image.txt
16401 15999 reference.txt
40459 35670 richtexteditor.txt

If this is possible, how could I also sort it by unique vs overall count?
