Joan,
What you're after is something custom at a layer above Solr, not
something that really fits as something built into Solr.
For example, I've implemented "saved searches" in both Collex <http://
www.nines.org/collex> and Flare (it's a proof-of-concept in Flare,
saved only in Rails session scope).
For what you're after, I encourage you to build a simple application
around Solr. Rails + solr-ruby make a really fast and clean way to
do this, *wink*. The application would allow users to enter queries
or build them up from clicking on facets, print, and save that query
to some persistent storage (I cringe saying the words "relational
database"). The user would return, pick a previously saved query and
refine it.
And indeed Solr does support this sort of refinement/filtering of
queries.

I would like to store the results of a query someway,. Then after
the user analyzes some of the documents (and he/she can take some
days to do it), the user can try to make a query refinement over
the previous result, getting a subset of it.
To do so I need to store the results as a filter, with a given
name, so the user can use it later on. But I need to store this in
disk, as I can not trust on the cache or the web session.
The user should then indicate that the query that is doing now has
a filter (a previous query) and this filter should be added to the
query (this is allowed in solr, i think) but as filter_ID, to be
loaded to solve the query.
I hope now its clearer what I'm trying to do

I'm using solr, to build a search engine, and it works great!!
Thanks for the job,guys!
Glad it is working for you.
but...
I need to build a searcher that must allow to perform a "search
process"
for a collection of documents. And this search process may last
several
days, and be composed of several queries that I must be able to
store and
reuse.
My doubts are:
How can I store the search results?
How can I add previously stored search results to a new search?
I'm not sure what you mean by "search process", nor really what you
mean by the functionality requirements you list. You can certainly
store search results and combine them together however you wish, but
it seems that that is more on the post-query data-analysis side of
things rather than having anything to do with Solr.
Could you clarify what you're looking for Solr to do for you?
