This is exactly how a score-sorted (the default) search works in
Lucene. It attempts to return the most relevant results first. Have
a look at the docs and the demo and try it out.

Dear Fellow Java/Lucene developers:
I want to know if there is a way to improve the efficiency of doing
a search
using lucene such that when a user does a search, and should there be
hundreds of hits, by paging the results for the user, provide only
the best
20 hits first (like google). If the user then goes to the second
page,
Lucene would then conduct a search and return the next best 20
results, and
so on. Is this possible using Lucene, and if so, how?
Just wondering.
Thanks to all who respond.
Sincerely;
Fayyaz
