While the current Riak Search [2] is our own version of Solr that supports a subset of the API, Yokozuna will provide the full Solr API. (As of the 0.7 release of Yokozuna [3], we support Solr 4.3.0.) As such, you should be able to use a combination of spatial and range [4] to accomplish what you need. Yokozuna is still under active development but is slated to be officially supported before the end of the year with the release of Riak 2.0 and we're looking for people to help bullet-proof it. What's they database from which you're migrating? What type of performance characteristics do you need? Hope that helps.
