That's possible with Lucene, you'll need to parse the XML files and put the required data into the Lucene index. Then you can search with a query like this: +model:cargo^0 +hp:[50000 TO 60000] hp:55000^10 This will match all document which contain "cargo" in the model field and a value of 50000 to 60000 in the hp field. Matches with hp 55000 will be boosted so they appear on top. However, matches 50000 to 54999 and 50001 to 60000 will have the same ranking. To change that you will need to implement your own variation of Lucene's Similarity class.
