                 Key: LUCENE-2864
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2864
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Query/Scoring
            Reporter: Robert Muir
             Fix For: 3.1, 4.0
         Attachments: LUCENE-2864.patch

the maximum within-document TF is a very useful scoring value, 
we should expose it so that people can use it in scoring

consider the following sim:
{code}
@Override
public float idf(int docFreq, int numDocs) {
  return 1.0F; /* not used */
}

@Override
public float computeNorm(String field, FieldInvertState state) {
  return state.getBoost() / (float) Math.sqrt(state.getMaxTF());
}
{code}

which is surprisingly effective, but more interesting for practical reasons.
