currently rank is indexed as Field.Keyword("rank_field", somerank);

all ranks will be 0-100 .... so i format them as  0###   to make
lucene sort them correctly. For my testing purposes, I confine the
range to 0-10.. so all ranks are indexed and retreived as 000-010
respectively.

if i create a sort with the sortfield array of score,rank gives me the
identical results to only sorting on score. BUT a sort of rank only
does sort by rank.
