I need a search engine that will let me set a sort order based on things in the data other than keyword relevancy. IE, people search in index of documents for 'keyword1, keyword2', and results are returned in alphabetical order by author's last name, ordered within the same author by publication date. I'm looking for some pre-existing search engine that can do this without making me import it to an SQL database and write my own code to select and order the results. I fear it doesn't exist. Anyone know of such a thing?
Thanks a million to anyone who can come up with one. I'm stumped.
