Generally most of the people are happy with default solr scoring. Especially in web like search. I am not sure but you can find this [1] interesting. With this you can say, for example i want at least 75% of the optional clauses must match.

If you want to see coord info like "0.5 = coord(1/2)" enter a query contains two or more terms combined with OR operator, and then go to last page with something like : &rows=10&start=numFound-10&debugQuery=on You will be able to see it.
