For the better analysis for ranking of documents, you should need to query the index with these extra parameters(in bold) eg...whole_query*&debug=true&wt=xml.* Copy that xml and and paste it to http://explain.solr.pl/ you can then easily find out the ranking alalysis in the forms of the pie charts and how much weight is giving to every parameters in your solr config and in the query.
