See BooleanQuery.setMinimumNumberShouldMatch.
Add the addresses as "SHOULD" termQuery clauses and set
minumumNumberShouldMatch to the required value.

Subject: Matching w/in X% ?
Say I have a field of To addresses from an email archive. I do a
search and I get 10 To addresses for a single hit. Then I want to find
similar email with the To addresses containing roughly 75% of those email
addresses as well. How would I do this?
In other words:
I get a result with:
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED],
[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Now I want to find similar emails with 75% of this addresses in the To
field.....
Thanks!
Michael
