I want to set different limit for different aggregations to query elasticsearch using sql plugin.  
I want to write an equivalent query to following ES query \> {"size":0,"query":{"filtered":{"query":{"query\_string":{"query":"_","analyze\_wildcard":true}},"filter":{"bool":{"must":[{"range":{"start":{"gte":1483640371392,"lte":1483641271392,"format":"epoch\_millis"}}}],"must\_not":[]}}}},"aggs":{"2":{"terms":{"field":"interface-id","size":5,"order":{"\_count":"desc"}},"aggs":{"3":{"terms":{"field":"srcport","size":5,"order":{"\_count":"desc"}}}}}}}  
I tried sql query using [Elasticsearch SQL Plugin](https://github.com/NLPchina/elasticsearch-sql/wiki/Aggregations) SELECT COUNT(_) FROM index GROUP BY interface-id, srcport LIMIT 5 but results comes different than that of ES Query.  
Can someone please help
