Yep, that's the basic idea. That way, you can rebuild the PageRank index
without touching the other index.

To combine it with other query types, use a CustomScoreQuery, something
like:
new CustomScoreQuery(otherQuery, pageRankFieldScoreQuery)
You may want to subclass CustomScoreQuery and do something more
interesting than the default, which is just to multiply the two scores
together, I believe. Check the CustomScoreQuery docs for the full details:

I've never used a Sort before, so someone else will have to answer this bit.

See above. I believe the default CustomScoreQuery behavior is two just
multiply the two query scores together, so you'd get something like:
otherQueryScore * PageRank
for the CustomScoreQuery above.
