Function query result as a filter query

[Pete Smith <pe...@lovefilm.com>]

Hi,

Is it possible to constrain a resultset using a filter query to only
return the top 100 documents for a particular field?

Say I have a field called 'hits' that has the total number of hits for
that item. I want to return only the documents that have the top 100
highest hits.

I want something like this:

fq=ord(hits):[* TO 100]

But that does not appear to work - I don't think I can use a function
query for the source of a query. I want it as a filter query so I can
also use it as a facet query.

Cheers,
Pete

It's probably not exactly what you're looking for, but you can do
ranges over functions in Solr 1.4
