Personally, I wrote my own model to Xapian.  I also wound up re-writing
the query parser, because I needed things like range searching and
regular expression support.  (And different, or no, stop words)

Pretty much all of the functionality in the CPP docs is directly
analagous to perl, in my experience.  

Catalyst::Model::Xapian is a handy thing for the most common
implementation of Xapian: as an integrated web site search engine.  Much
more, and you are probably going to just want to write your own.

That said, I'm sure he would appreciate pathes to return the MSet
instead of Mset::Tied.
