Apologies I didn't make the requirement clear. I need to keep the best N documents - set A (chosen by some criteria - call them sponsored docs) in front of the natural scoring docs - set B so that I return (A,B). The set A docs need to all score above 1% of maxScore in B else they join the B set, though I don't really know maxScore until I've looked at all the docs.
I am looking at the QueryElevationComponent for some hints, but any other suggestions are appreciated.
