: Is there a way to calculate a theoretical max score for the current query?
there's been some discussion on this on the java-user list over the years
... the short answer is "yes it's possible, but only in very controlled
situations" ... as i recall it depended on limiting the set of possible
t's not good
to be adding and deleting docs on a whim.
i think the answer is no, but I also think this could be done by hacking
lucene's relevancy scoring method to output a theoretical max for the given
query.
