I just wrote this for Technorati the other day for our internal hackaton. It was pretty simple. It doesn't use Solr, but it could. It uses Jetty's HTTP handler, which I highly recomment. It acts as a web service that responds to HTTP GET requests that contain a query, and it return text/plain with suggestions, one per line.

I had the very same article in mind - how would it be simpler in Solr than in Lucene? A spellchecker is pretty much standard in every major search engine nowadays - with one, Solr would be the best, hands down (even if it already is :P). Are your plans to build this anything concrete, or is it just at the 'i might do this in the future' stage? Thanks, -- Michael Imbeault CHUL Research Center (CHUQ) 2705 boul.
