I'd be more inclined to guess that kylie->klyie falls
below the 0.5f similarity threshold you pass.
Try print out the results of
fuzzyQuery.rewrite(indexReader).toString();
This will rewrite the fuzzyQuery to a BooleanQuery
which explicitly lists the TermQuery objects that the
fuzzyQuery has found potential matches for in your
index.
