Comparisons can only be done with integers. To convert a datetime
column to an integer, sphinx will use UNIX_TIMESTAMP, which counts up
from 0, starting around 1970. It seems like the solution to this would
be to cast the datetime as a string instead of a timestamp. Not sure
how that is accomplished.
