Hi,

Let's say I have this kind of percolate query :

GET my-index/my-type/\_percolate  
{  
"doc": {  
...  
},  
"query": {  
"match": {  
...  
}  
},  
"track\_scores": true,  
"sort": "\_score"  
}

I have a query option which limit the number of queries to percolate my doc  
against.  
In fact I'm only interested in the best result (\_score) of the matching  
percolate queries.  
Is there anyway to limit the number of the filtered percolate queries to  
the best match ?

Thanks in advance for your help

Regards,

Arnaud
