Aggregations across multiple indices

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello Everyone,
I am attempting to use aggregations to count the number of documents
matching a given query across multiple indices. What I would like to do, is
make those counts on distinct keys. Say I had following document in 2
different indices, aliased together.

{
    _index: myindex
    _type: mytype
    _id: 1
    _version: 1
    _score: 1
    _source: {
        country: MEXICO
    }
}```

When I make an aggs term query on the field "country" I would like it to
only return a single count for the document with id=1(which exists in both
indices). The actual use case is a bit more complicated than what's
described above, this is just an example of the functionality that I am
looking for. I cannot find any info in the docs, and have asked in the IRC
channel to no avail.
