Groovy client does not seem to be listed in the clients page on the website.  
It's not available as a plugin either. Is it part of the elasticsearch jar  
or needs to be downloaded from somewhere?

Its in the maven repo: [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/groovy-api/). You can install it as a plugin to get scripts using groovy.

When attempting to install as a plugin, it looks for  
elasticsearch-client-groovy-0.16.2.zip  
which does not exist. It looks like the latest version in  
[elasticsearch.googlecode.com](http://elasticsearch.googlecode.com) is 0.10.0.

Is that the latest ?

The documentation at [http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/clients/groovy-api/](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/clients/groovy-api/) still refers to the elasticsearch-client-groovy artifact. An update referring to the new artifact would be good.
