You can't store strings in a BitSet. What I would do is return a List<String> but make a custom subclass of AbstractList<String> which creates the strings on demand from the Hits object. We use similar tricks to convert Hits into a List of another more complex object type and it works great. You can cache the strings as they're retrieved if you're planning to use some strings much more than others.
