How can I limit the number of hits in my query?

Hello! I am new to Lucene, so forgive me if my question is basic. I did try googling for an answer... For an ajax autocomplete widget, I am querying using Lucene. I only want to return, for example, the first 20 hits of anything that Lucene finds in whatever order Lucene gives to me. Two quest

How to Update the Index once it is created

IndexReader.deleteDocument(int docid) equivalent in 2.1 IndexWriter?
