The QueryParser in KinoSearch 0.13 has this behavior by default.

Note the top hit in this search for '+3 +senator':

The title contains '3', but the body does not.  The body contains  
'senator', but the title does not.

What version are you using?  If you're using 0.12, you can get 0.13  
either from the KS homepage or off the search.cpan.org website.  You  
can also do this from the CPAN shell:

     install CREAMYG/KinoSearch-0.13.tar.gz

Ordinarily, you could just 'install KinoSearch', but the CPAN indexer  
was hosed when I uploaded that file and it's never recovered.
