Hello,

I have been trying to figure out how to annotate each result of a full text search with the scoring factors that were used in a less verbose way than using the `explain` method in the scorer. Specifically, I wanted to have the result return the term frequency (of every term that matched), the IDF and whatever other factors went into scoring with each result. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance,  
Rajesh
