I think that you cannot find them because "abstract" appears in a 
metaname.

you have to search for:

swish-e2 -w 'yourmetaname=abstract' -f index.file

You can get more info with -D issuing a -v 4:

swish-e2 -v 4 -D -f index.file | grep abstract

You should see something like:

abstract:  Meta:2 filename ....

Check in your config file for your MetaNames. Meta 1 means that the 
word is not in any metaname. Meta>=2 means that the word is in a 
MetaName. Each MetaName owns a unique number starting at 2.

Hope this helps.
