I was wondering if this is even possible. I'll try to explain what I'm trying to do to the best of my ability.
Ok, so our site has a bunch of products that are sold by any number of sellers. Currently when I search for some product I get back all products matching that search term but the problem is there may be multiple products sold by the same seller that are all closely related, therefore their scores are related. So basically the search ends up with results that are all closely clumped together by the same seller but I would much rather prefer to distribute these results across sellers (given each seller a fair shot to sell their goods). Is there any way to add some boost query for example that will start weighing products lower when their seller has already been listed a few times. For example, right now I have Product foo by Seller A Product foo by Seller A Product foo by Seller A Product foo by Seller B Product foo by Seller B Product foo by Seller B Product foo by Seller C Product foo by Seller C Product foo by Seller C where each result is very close in score. I would like something like this Product foo by Seller A Product foo by Seller B Product foo by Seller C Product foo by Seller A Product foo by Seller B Product foo by Seller C .... basically distributing the results over the sellers. Is something like this possible? I don't care if the solution involves a boost query or not. I just want some way to distribute closely related documents.
