I am working on a model using wikipedia topics\' names for my experiments in full-text index.
I set up and index on \'topic\' (legacy), and do a full text search for
For just a lucene index lookup with scoring you might be better off with this:

I don't know which order algorithms does lucene use to order the results.
However, about the pagination, if you change the order of limit and skip like follows, should be ok.
start n=node:topic('name:(united states)') return n skip 10 limit 50 ;
I would also add that if you are performing full-text search maybe a solution like solr is more appropriate.
