Hm, I don't follow what you are looking to do, Oliver. You want to take the field length into account..... when indexing? Or when searching? You want it to affect relevance?
You can certainly get the length of the String (original value) in a field *after* you get your result set, but that's probably not what you are after, because that's just a length()-type call.
