I had a look at the archives, but didn't come up with anything on these 2
questions. I'm using htdig to index the archives of our email discussion
lists in Mailman:

1) what type of algorithm does htdig use to determine how many stars to
assign to a citation?  There are many times when htdig will assign 3 starts
to one citation and 4 to the next one, when there is nothing that
differentiates them, at least that I can see, ie, they both are exact
matches to the search criterion . . .  and

2) is there a secondary search criterion that htdig uses in selecting the
order in which to display matches?  Seems to me that date would be the
obvious one, but I keep getting searches in which dates are randomly
represented among a whole list of 3- and 4-star matches . . .

Thanks for any guidance on this.

Matt
