I could not find relevant documentation, but I did find this issue on the project's Github repo. The issue has a milestone of 1.2.0 release, but it seems it has already been released in the 1.1.x branch. The issue has been closed via this commit.

From the commit, it seems that all you need to sort your results by the textScore metadata info is one extra method call on the query builder:

$result = $queryBuilder
    ->equals($expr)
    ->sortMeta('fieldToSearch', 'textScore') // <- this
    ->getQuery()
    ->execute();
