Solr does have the ExternalFileField available. You could track
existing clicks from the container search log and generate a file to
be used with ExternalFileField.
http://lucene.apache.org/solr/api/org/apache/solr/schema/ExternalFileField.html

In the solr source, trunk/src/test/test-files/solr/conf/schema11.xml
and schema-trie.xml show how to use it.
