We are running a marketplace _(with auctions and fixed price items)_.  
Since you have different type of search users and use cases _(some search for **precise** items, others want some **inspiration** )_, we are thinking about this approach:

First step: give **rank to items** based on different criteria  
_(ie. how often is the item put in wish list, has the seller a good reputation...)_

Second step: split items into four buckets _(new, used, bids, wish list)_.

Third step: show in search result 10 results out of each bucket, combined with the rank of the items,  
so that we have the highest quality items **and** variety.

Any idea how to solve this, while maintaining the the speed of Elastic Search?
