You could experiment with using "old" versions of SolrJ on your client,
and only use the XML serialization format to talk to Solr -- but even then
you are likely to run into a lot of "Java5" idioms in the SOlrJ code that
might require lots of patching to work properly on Java 1.3.
Your best bet is probably to ignore SolrJ -- just pick an HTTP library and
an XML serialiation library that you are familiar with and know will run
in your client app and use them to talk to Solr with some custom code to
format your docs in XML for indexing and parsing the response XML when
searching.
