This works for me;

tell application "Finder"
	tell list view options of window 1
		set sort column to name column
		tell column name column
			if sort direction is normal then
				set sort direction to reversed
			else
				set sort direction to normal
			end if #
		end tell # column name column
	end tell # window 1
end tell # Finder
