Hi,

Currently if I am not wrong scripts are run on each document. Can it be  
done at Facet level. _For example_:

I have terms A and B which are part of an Index. Now I need an additional  
term C = A \* B and then I do aggregation on all 3 terms.  
For term C I use _statisticalScriptFacet_ and for rest I use \*  
statisticalFacet\*

But looks like the script executes at each document level so it becomes  
equivalent to Sum (A1 \* B1 + A2 \* B2 + A3 \* B3 + .........+ An \* Bn)

Whereas I need ---- Sum (A) \* Sum (B)

Is there any easy way of achieving it without handling at the client level?

Thanks  
Rahul

Can'y you run one facet on A, one facet on B, and then multiple them on  
your end?
