There's no API provided for this, but it's trivial to do if you know how
many databases you're searching over:

    true_docid = (multi_docid - 1) / no_of_databases + 1;

This relies on the algorithm used to map docids not changing, but I
think it's very unlikely it would.  Still, perhaps it would be worth
adding an API method for this.
