I think it can be implemented even without lucene 4.
With relatively simple modification elasticsearch could drop first N facets
before sending results to the client, it would still have to collect
(offset + size) facets from shards though in order to sort them correctly.
But I am really curious why do you need support for offsets in terms stats
facets? Could you tell us a little bit about your use case? Are you paging
through a lot of facets?

Hello all:
elasticsearch offset and limit facets - Stack Overflow
I have a question at stack overflow above.
If this isn't possible right now, do any of you know if this will be
possible after lucene 4 is integrated?
