I agree that Solr's interface cannot be categorized as "pure" REST, it would have been more correct to say "RESTful" or something like that.

  I think most people understood REST in the looser sense, as wikipedia explains...

  
  "The term is also often used in a looser sense to describe any simple interface that uses XML (or YAML, JSON, plain text) over HTTP without an additional messaging layer such as SOAP."
