I'm not sure what *could* be easier than looping with IndexSearcher.doc(), looping from 1 to maxDoc. Of course you'll have to pay some attention to whether you get a document back or not, and I'm not quite sure whether you'd have to worry about getting deleted documents. But I don't think either of these really count if the index was optimized
