Hi,

This may seem like a silly question, but with C# and Nest or the [ElasticSearch.net](http://ElasticSearch.net) clients is it possible to just get the Stream that comes from Elastic and use it with out the IElasticResponse? What I want to do is take the stream from Elastic use a Json reader/writer to transform the stream and push the stream out as my Http response.

Is there a way I can achieve this?

Cheers,

James.
