If you don't mind hacking the source: In Hits.java
In method "getMoreDocs()" // Comment out the following //float scoreNorm = 1.0f; //if (length > 0 && scoreDocs[0].score > 1.0f) { // scoreNorm = 1.0f / scoreDocs[0].score; //} // And just set scoreNorm to 1. int scoreNorm = 1; I don't know if u can do it without going to the src.
