Sorry for the quick reply, but yes you can accomplish this by
tweaking a custom Similarity implementation (or DefaultSimilarity
subclass). Check out IndexSearcher.explain on a query and a document
and then tinker.

Lucene seems to prefer matches in shorter documents. Is it possible
to influence the scoring mechanism to have matches in shorter
fields score higher instead?
For example, a query for "europe" should rank:
1. title:"Europe"
2. title:"History of Europe"
3. title:"Travel in Europe, Middle East and Africa"
4. subtitle:"Fairy Tales from Europe"
