[Xapian-discuss] Inexact resultset growing rapidly

Hi,

I'm experiencing something 'strange' with the scriptindex/omega 
interface. When I run a certain query (P='let'), it returns the 
following information in the XML:

             [Query] => let
             [TopDoc] => 0
             [Matches] => 68
             [Last] => 25
             [ThisPage] => 1
             [LastPage] => 3
             [xP] => let.
             [time] => 0.005183
             [dbsize] => 871698
             [sizeExact] =>
             [version] => Xapian - omega 0.9.2

But when I jump to page 3 (25 results per page), it shows:

             [Query] => let
             [TopDoc] => 50
             [Matches] => 146
             [Last] => 75
             [ThisPage] => 3
             [LastPage] => 6
             [xP] => let.
             [time] => 0.003257
             [dbsize] => 871698
             [sizeExact] =>
             [version] => Xapian - omega 0.9.2

Note the number of matches. This goes on and on, I guess until the word 
frequency is reached (6677 to be precise).

Is this a knows issue and if so, what can I do about it?

Best Regards,
Eric Bus
