Updating index is easy, I can have a background thread to do it.
Someone mentioned the "searchable archive" before, where do I find it?
Thanks,

Subject: Re: Sorting VS Scoring
The problem here is that you'll have to keep deleting and
adding your documents in order to update the counter field for
all of these solutions, and I doubt that's what you really want
to do. There is much discussion of updating a document that's
already in the index, but I don't think it's there yet.
I know this has been discussed in the mailing list, so you might
want to search the searchable archive on this...

I'm trying to figure out what the best practice is in term of using

or customized scoring.
For example, if I have want to index some static pages and rank them by
how
many times a page is viewed. I can get the page view counters and store
them in the index document as a field COUNTER. I want to be able to sort
query result in the order of most viewed pages. I see three ways to do
it:
1. Search result sorting
Search.search(query, sort);
2. Use the counter itself as the score
FieldScoreQuery("COUNTER", FieldScoreQuery.Type.INT);
3. Customize scoring
Set boost on COUNTER field during index time
I haven't got the last one working yet. Somehow, when I query, boost
value
on the COUNTER field is ignored.
Any inputs?
Thanks,
