It collides with the inner working in Solr, as faceting does not process the doc-IDs from the matching documents in result order. It also uses all the hits, but that could be hacked. What is N? If it is a fairly low number (hundreds) and your documents are indexed with an unique ID, you can extract the IDs and perform a facet-request with the ORed IDs as query. I am a bit curious about what you're trying to achieve here. Conventionally, faceting provides an overview of all data, often prioritized by occurrence count. While I understand the idea of trying to use weights to prioritize, limiting the faceting to a subset of the result set seems very much like a standard ranked document search.
