The Lucene documents tell me that "Hits" will be removed from the API in Lucene 3.0.

Deprecated. Hits will be removed in Lucene 3.0. Use search(Query, Filter, int) instead.

The proposed overload limits the number of documents returned to the value of the int.

So my question is: what is the recommended way to perform a search in Lucene with no limit on the number of documents to be returned?
