Checking which terms are already available in the index from a list of terms

[reeuv <ra...@gmail.com>]

I have a list of terms that I want to check which of them are already
available in the index

for e.g I have a <field name="word" type="string" index="true" store="true">
which indexes the terms.

And I have list of words e.g. Honda, Civic, 2001. 

I want to check which of these terms are already available in the index. Is
there any good efficient way of doing it rather than sending request one by
one for the word Honda, Civic and 2001 ?

Thanks.

if the list you have is small relative hte total number of terms in the 
index, i would suggest facet.query...

  q=*:*&facet=true&facet.query={!term f=word}Honda&facet.query={!term f=word}Civic&...

...if the total number of terms in the index is small relateive the number 
of terms you want to check, then i would suggest using facet.field and 
comparing the results on the client...

  q=*:*&facet=true&facet.field=word&facet.limit=-1
