Note a couple of things:
1> how a doc scores also takes into account how many other words
are in the field you're querying on.
2> Is "text" your default field? Because what you posted is really
searching text:fleming <default field>:roofing <default
field>:inc......
Not also the implicit OR between each of them. Is this really your
intent?
3> query.explain (as i remember) is your friend to figure out how the
weights are being calculated. If you haven't got a copy of Luke, I'd
*strongly* advise getting one and looking at the "explain" tab...
