... another "magic" field name like "score" ... This could be done with a separate "magic" punctuation like $score, $mean (the mean score), etc.so $docid would work.

(by order of indexed) Not that i can think of. Lucene already has support for it, so it would probably be a fairly simple patch if someone wanted to try to implement it, we just need some syntax to make the parameter parsing construct the right Sort object -- allthough I'm loath to add another "magic" field name like "score" since "docid" or "id" or anything else we can think of could easily conflict with a field name in someones schema. if we add something like this I'd want to add configuration to solrconfig.xml to determine what the "magic" field names for sorting by internal id and score should be. -Hoss
