Thats what im trying to do! I only want to use the keywords for
sorting.

I did some snooping and notice that when i use the :fullscan option,
the socket thats returned is blank!
(riddle (1.3.3) lib/riddle/client.rb:640:in `request')

Anyway,
I'm going to try the approach mentioned here: 
http://sphinxsearch.com/forum/view.html?id=4155
Doing an :any + a :fullscan without keywords and then joining them.

I'll post my results :)

Thanks Again,
David Bennett.
