I have a search request like this: My docs have a type, and the types like "sport", "health", "news" and etc, and now I want the result count is mapping percent by types: sport 10%, health 30%, news 60%. Eg: if I search to get 200 records, I expect that the 200 records include 20 news records, 60 health records and 120 news records. I know I can calculate this after multiple search, but can I do it using one query? thanks for any suggest! johnson -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hi, It is not possible to do it in a single query. I think the easiest way to do that would be to issue several queries and merge results on client side.
