Initially reported as part of #629. In the example there, a search for "markdown" (http://docs.julialang.org/en/latest/search/?q=markdown) produced the first few results:

The Markdown page should have been the first entry in the results list.

I wonder if the ranking is intentional, e.g. because the page has considerably less content than the section placed first. If that's the case, then I'd suggest indicating that factor in the search results (e.g. as a word count, or some abstracted "percentage match" number).
