Sorting by Score

My primary sort is by relevance score and my secondary sort is by date.
The Hits.getScore() method returns the score by 7 digits to the right of
the decimal point.  Therefore, If I round to only 2 decimal points in the
display, the underlying 7 point score will be different in the sort.

Example:   score = .7876546   Display score = 79%        The two scores
should be equal in sort.
            score = .7907536  Display score = 79%

How do I convert the score in the Hits.getScore() method to sort to the
rounded 2 decimal point float like the score displayed?  Any help will be
appreciated.
