One of our devs came up with a solution from these posts

Answer 1

If you're willing to upgrade to nutch 1.0 you can use the solrindex as described in this article by Lucid Imagination: http://www.lucidimagination.com/blog/2009/03/09/nutch-solr/.

ya thats the definitive article for nutch/solr – Edlin

Answer 2

nutch 2.x is designed to use solr as default. You can follow the steps in http://wiki.apache.org/nutch/Nutch2Tutorial, or a better instruction in the book "Web Crawling and Data Mining with Apache Nutch".

It's still an open issue. If you're feeling adventurous you could try applying those patches yourself, although it looks like it's not so simple
