Are there any docs on how the values for the various stats API's are  
calculated? (i.e. \_cluster/stats, \_nodes/stats)

Most of the values are very self-explanatory, but I'm trying to determine  
how the nodes.process.cpu.percent value from \_cluster/stats is calculated.  
If I have 32 total available processors (per nodes.os.available\_processors)  
does that mean that the percent value of nodes.process.cpu.percent will  
range from 0% to 3200%?

Thanks!  
-Kevin
