Depends for which query no? ;) Sounds like you want to simulate the QP behavior http://lucene.apache.org/java/2_4_0/queryparsersyntax.html for boosting. Meaning, if for the query "b" you want to simulate the query "b OR b$^2" and have matches of b$ count more than b, then I'd follow how QP does it - create the query programmatically or something (I'm not near the code at the moment so I cannot give a more concrete approach).
If you want b and b$ to count the same, then that's already the behavior - i.e., docs containing both will score higher. If I misunderstood your question, then plea correct me.
