well, i have found that I can use float(-1e3000) as -infinity value,
but when I pass it to TopFieldDocs constructor I get InvalidArgsError:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "testRemoteSearch2.py", line 75, in searchSorted
    tfd2 = TopFieldDocs(tfd.totalHits, scoreDocs, sortFields, maxScore)
InvalidArgsError: (<type 'PyLucene.TopFieldDocs'>, '__init__', (0, [], [<SortField: "modified"!>], -1.#INF))
