Hi @krishnaraj221193,

Every [bucket aggregation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-bucket.html) in elasticsearch returns the doc count associated with it.

For example, the [terms aggregation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-bucket-terms-aggregation.html) will retrieve the top values ordered by doc count:

```
GET /_search
{
    "aggs" : {
        "genres" : {
            "terms" : { "field" : "genre" }
        }
    }
}

{
    ...
    "aggregations" : {
        "genres" : {
            "doc_count_error_upper_bound": 0, 
            "sum_other_doc_count": 0, 
            "buckets" : [ 
                {
                    "key" : "electronic",
                    "doc_count" : 6
                },
                {
                    "key" : "rock",
                    "doc_count" : 3
                },
                {
                    "key" : "jazz",
                    "doc_count" : 2
                }
            ]
        }
    }
}

```

Cheers,  
LG
