Hi

I meet a situation that search results should be sorted only by the  
frequency of the keyword in the document. Since the default score  
calculating considers many other factor, I cannot just sort by score. Is  
there a way to specify how to calculate the score, or any way to achieve  
the effect.

Thanks.
