In the black rectangle of the picture,I have the TERMS result:461,  
But,the CARDINALITY result is 460!  
They both have the same filter,I don't know what makes these result.

Hi,

In kibana, most visualization have `inspection` link to get the raw elasticsearch queries and their results. Could you check them?

Both [Cardinality aggregation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-metrics-cardinality-aggregation.html#_counts_are_approximate) and[Terms aggregation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-bucket-terms-aggregation.html#search-aggregations-bucket-terms-shard-min-doc-count) are approximate. The algorithms are different and that could be the reason of difference.

I don't understand Chineze and the screenshot make no sense for me, sorry. Please explain it in english or you may ask in [Elastic In Your Native Tongue - Discuss the Elastic Stack](https://discuss.elastic.co/c/in-your-native-tongue/11).

Thanks.
