```
"aggs": {
    "2": {
      "terms": {
        "field": "dns.question.type",
        "size": 1000,
        "order": {
          "_count": "desc"
        }

```

I do not understand how to add an aggregation to the Java API elasticsearch request. It is necessary to count the number of documents with the value dns.question.type and return them

```
 SearchResponse response = client.prepareSearch(String.valueOf(QueryBuilders.rangeQuery("@timestamp").gte("now-11d").lt("now-9d")).addAggregation(
AggregationBuilders.terms("")

```

And how do I withdraw after the value of the response such as a Hash Map
