OK, I think I get it now. There's nothing in Solr that I know of that'll let you do this. Although you could add a clause boosted insanely high, something like date_modified:[aug10 TO aug 20]^10000 that would bubble your target results toward the top of your list... Note, that's not the correct date syntax...
You'd probably have to have your app do the fine-grained sorting, that is of the, say, 20 docs returned in your list, sort them by your aug10-20 dates.
