Hi,

yes, Solr does support fuzzy queries by using the Levenstein Distance
algorithm: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damerau%E2%80%93Levenshtein_distance

You can specify a fuzzy query by adding a tilde (~) symbol at the end of
your query as in title: Solr~
You can even specify a proximity threshold in order to achieve a less or
more strict fuzzy match as in title:Solr~0.8 with the threshold being a
number between 0 and 1, 1 being the most strict..
