Perhaps you can use a filter in the following way.

-Create a filter (via QueryFilter) that would contain all document that
do not have null values for the field
Interesting: what does the QueryFilter look like? Isn't it just as hard as finding out what docs have the null values for the field?
I really like to know your trick here.
-flip the bits of the filter so that it now contains documents that have
null values for a field
-Use the filter in conjunction with subsequent queries.

This would also help with performance as filters are simply bitsets and
can cheaply be stored, generated once and used often.

If you want performance, a better way might be to assign some special string/value (if it's easy to create) to the missing field of docs and index the field without tokenizing it. Then you may search for that special value to find the docs.

This is from Solr, so I'm not sure off the top of my head if this mojo applies by itself, but a search for -fieldname:[* TO *] will result in all documents that do not have the specified field.
