How are you defining a boost for a field in the schema? As far as I know there's no such parameter for the <field> tag that Solr understands. Solr ignores attributes it doesn't recognize....
So, you'd have to read/parse the schema.xml file (which you can get from the admin handler, see the URL generated by the admin page when you look at the schema) and find the value yourself with normal XML parsing techniques. At least that's my understanding...
