How to use the field data API to get the frequency count of a search query. EX: "aggs" : { "my-terms" : {"filters" : { "filters" : { "name" : { "term" : { "zip\_key" : "20156" }}}}}}. How to replace the same using field stats API without using aggregation. Or is there any other solution to get term frequency count other than aggregation ---
