Hi. I'm looking through the watcher stats API and I'm confused to which metric i'm looking for when trying to map a watcher ID to how many times it's fired. Is this under the current\_watches array of hashes in the watcher stats API? Or should I be looking elsewhere?

Moved this over to the x-pack forum.

If you want to know how often a watch was executed, the `.watcher-history-*` indices might be more of a help than the watcher stats.
