Re: StatsComponent and 1.3
I'm guessing that manipulating the client end, acts_as_solr, is an easier approach then backporting server side functionality. Especially as you will have to forward migrate at some point. Out of curiosity, which version of acts_as_solr are you using? The plugin has moved homes a couple of times, and I have heard and found that the version by Mathias Meyer at http://github.com/mattmatt/acts_as_solr/tree/master is the best. I've used it with 1.4 trunk with no issues, and Mathias has been very responsive.

Could you give some more details on what seems different and
incompatible with acts_as_solr?
You can query the StatsComponent from Ruby using the solr-ruby
library. Using the example from the wiki at http://wiki.apache.org/solr/StatsComponent
, it points to http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=*:*stats=truestats.field=pricestats.field=popularityrows=0indent=true
require 'solr'
solr = Solr::Connection.new
solr.send(Solr::Request::Select.new(:standard, :q = '*:*', :stats =
true, 'stats.field' = ['price','popularity'], :rows=0))
Which output this (in irb):
= #Solr::Response::Select:0x141692c @header={QTime=1,
params={stats=true, qt=standard, stats.field=[price,
popularity], q=*:*, rows=0, wt=ruby}, status=0},

Is it possible, with some degree of effort (obviously) for me to
essentially port some of the functionality of StatsComponent to 1.3
myself? It's that, or waiting for 1.4 to come out and someone
developing support for it into acts_as_solr, or myself fixing what I
have for acts_as_solr to work with the output. I'm just trying to
gauge the easiest solution :)
I'm unclear on what what the discrepancies are, so not quite sure how
to help just yet.
As Eric asked, what version/branch of acts_as_solr are you using?
