I am not sure, I was assigned to do this task. It must be related to furthur tweaks of the result-set which is based on scores. > The normalized score > *is* in a fixed range already, between 0 and 1. Would it serve > to just modify that and send it back to the partner? But, I have got some results whose score is above 1. I do not know whether I met your conditions (default) . For ex.. 3.0334244 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(freeTextField:england in 7083017), product of: 2.236068 = tf(termFreq(freeTextField:england)=5) 7.235139 = idf(docFreq=14539, maxDocs=7420800) 0.1875 = fieldNorm(field=freeTextField, doc=7083017) Thanks.
