Hello,

There is something i don't understand.  
I want to get a daily hit ratio calculated on the hit/miss stored in a particular field on my index.

I tried to reproduce the doc example adding an extra agg.  
When i try to use bucket\_script as an aggregation:

```auto
GET /varnish/_search
{
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "must": [
                {
                    "range": {
                        "time_req": {
                            "from": "1608021054803",
                            "to": "1608321154803",
                            "include_lower": true,
                            "include_upper": true,

                    }
                },
                {

                            "miss": "miss",
                            "hits": "hits"
                        },
                        "script": {
                            "source": "params.miss / (params.hits+ params.miss) * 100",
                            "lang": "painless"
                        },
                        "gap_policy": "skip"
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

```

I Got this message:

```auto
{
  "error" : {
    "root_cause" : [],
    "type" : "search_phase_execution_exception",
    "reason" : "",
    "phase" : "fetch",
    "grouped" : true,
    "failed_shards" : [],
    "caused_by" : {
      "type" : "aggregation_execution_exception",
      "reason" : "buckets_path must reference either a number value or a single value numeric metric aggregation, got: [InternalFilter] at aggregation [hits]"
    }
  },
  "status" : 500
}

```

Without the bucket\_script aggregation:

```auto
  "aggregations" : {
    "whatevertoaddanextraagglevel" : {
      "buckets" : {
        "varnish" : {
          "doc_count" : 38943610,
          "hits" : {
            "doc_count" : 25153481
          },
          "miss" : {
            "doc_count" : 12456794
          }
        }
      }

```

i tried varnish\>hit, whatevertoaddanextraagglevel\>hit ... it doesn't exists  
Do you have any idea what i am missing ?

Thanks !
