Yeah!! There are no methods that you mentioned. But there are some ways to do this.
TopFieldDocs:search(Query query, Filter filter, int n, Sort sort) If above method does not solve your purpose, then My suggestion is to use method search(Query query, Filter filter, HitCollector results) and pass your HitCollector which extends TopFieldDocCollector .
