Search results ordering?

What is the ordering method you are using in the website for results? Searching for things like Pi and Blow gives an appropriately ordered result. Is it by popularity or votes or some combination? Thanks!

Hi mmealling,
We use Solr for our search so first Solr ranks results based on the relevancy score and then we boost by a few things. Exact matches are boosted the most, next up is the popularity. This does a decent job making sure that usually the most relevant result is first.
Cheers.
