[opencms-dev] Sort search results weighting popularity and age

I would like to sort search results in OpenCms weighting the page
popularity (how many times the page was viewed) and age (how old the
content is).
Has anybody done this before?

In OpenCms we have the publish date, so we know the age.
Regarding popularity, maybe it's possible to retrieve this information
from the flex cache... is it?

Then, the next step would be to make the search engine weight in these
values in the results list (toghether with relevancy as currently
defined). Any suggestion on how to do it?

regards,
Alessandro Magnolo
