Have a look at the WordNet contribution in the Lucene sandbox 
repository.  It could be leveraged for part of a solution.
It's something I contributed.
Relevant links are:
http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/docs/lucene-sandbox/
http://www.tropo.com/techno/java/lucene/wordnet.html
Basically it uses the Lucene index as a kind of associated array to map 
words to their synonyms using the thesaurus from Wordnet, so a key like, 
say, fast will have mappings to quick and rapid. This can then be 
used for query expansion.

An example of this expansion in use is here:
