Hello,  
I have an index for comments. Comments can also get sub-comments. If I search my InnerHits query for the most popular one (most likes etc). Can I somehow get the information at which position this comment is. So I would need that to show that there are e.g. 5 comments before and e.g. 10 comments after. That means I would need the information that the comment is at position 6. Is it possible to get this information?
