Hello!

I am trying to score bool query using product instead of sum. I started  
with custom\_score query:

{  
"query" : {  
"custom\_score" : {  
"query" : {  
"bool" : {  
"must" : [  
,  
  
]  
},  
"script": ?  
}  
}  
}  
}

- but then I found no way to refer to scores of and  
 inside the script.

How do I calculate score of bool query using product of it's subqueries?
