I have a calculated site column AlertSortOrder, which I added to a list. I created a managed property nvAlertSortOrder (sortable, searchable, queryable, retrievable) mapped to the corresponding crawled property (ows_AlertSortOrder). The problem - I am unable to filter/sort by that managed property, and when I check the raw search results using search api:

/searchcenter/_api/search/query?querytext='my unique list item title'&selectproperties=nvAlertSortOrder

that property is null.

Any ideas?

Beyond performing a full-crawl (as Dave suggested), while having used the field on few items, you would also need to promote it as Managed Property, by default being just Crawled property, while settings its attributes, e.g. searchable - via the managed properties in SP-CA, as well as update the settings of your web parts to include it in results.
