Sorry but at this level a brute force solution IMO it's not Clever or Best Practices.
My solution it's simple and clear.

OMG, thanks!

I think it's not an ASCCII order problem (same weight):
I have read the instructions hundreds of times, but I still don't understand in the first test why 2000 (2) comes at the end, after 99(18). Or how 103 (4) comes before 2000 (2).
I understand that the order would be: 2000(2), 103(4), 123(6), 4444(16), 99(18), but in the test it says: 103, 123, 4444, 99, 2000.
(It is in C#)
I'm sure should be some silly thing, but I can't see it, please help.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks very much for the explanation, now I understand it!
Great idea!

Thanks for reply, yeah, I understand the horizontal and vertical, I don't understan how check the four(really two) diagonals with this code.

(for python)
I don't understand the instructions, if you fix a queen position, in the solution should be the initial queen fix.
For instance, if the fix queen is c3, the solution shoud be a.,b.,c3,d. ...
In the instructions says for c3, the solution is d8,a7,e6,h5,b4,g3,c2,f1 I don't understand why g3 and c2
Please, could you help me?
