Problem solved. I wasn't quoting the value. Since I was using names such as 'Gary Bettman' solr must have been giving all the Garys.

I am having problems explaining some results of the fq parameter. Let's say I have two fields, 'people' and 'category'. I do a search for 'dog' and ask to facet on the people and category fields. I am told that there are 200 documents with people='bob' and 100 with category='news'. I would expect that when I make the query q=dog, fq=category:news that the new faceting results should never show more than 100 entries. However this is not what I see. Instead I see facets on fields exceeding 100. How could that be when I just told it to filter and only show the 100 articles that contained category:news? Thanks, Kallin Nagelberg.
