Filter by a score threshold

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

From what i've read (http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/
LuceneFAQ#Can_I_filter_by_score.3F) filtering by score is not a good
idea in lucene.

I was wondering if there are any other options other than the
min_score filter in Elastic that would make doing something like this
more viable. I'm thinking along the lines of using scripting with the
doc score and max score, but im not sure if this is possible?

Even if you use scripting, if you base your calc on the lucene score, you
will face the same problems, no way around it...
