Count per post is going to be easy to factor in. Total count across related posts (question and associated answers) is going to be a lot harder to do correctly, but we can probably fudge a little and get the general effect.
Instead of just returning a list of unique references in each post, the index now counts them. So I can report that the post with the most repeated references on Hermeneutics.SE is this one with 17 references to Revelation 3:14!
I have also documented the index structure in the wiki.
Keeping a total count of a reference mention per Post (Question or Answer) and then cumulative of the Set of a Question and all its set of Answers allows for ranking the extra mentions higher than Posts or Sets that do not have as many.
