Nope, there isn't a way to index a single field, it's always the entire document.
That said, the URL you pointed to is very interesting, but it may be overkill depending upon what you want to do with the integer field. If you just want to influence the score, then just plain external field fields should work for you. What is the use-case you're considering?
