Hi,

I saw strange behavior in Es Aggregation query.  
Sample Query:  
curl -XGET "[http://localhost:9200/i\*/cdr/\_search?pretty](http://localhost:9200/i*/cdr/_search?pretty)" -d '  
{  
"size": 0,  
"aggs": {  
"Diagnosticcode": {  
"filter": {  
"range": {  
"@timestamp": {  
"gte": "2014-07-28T00:56:48.363-05:00",  
"lte": "2014-07-28T00:57:18.391-05:00"  
}  
}  
},  
"aggs": {  
"DiagAgg": {  
"terms": {  
"field": "Diag"  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}   
I am running this Aggregation query every 30 seconds so whatever document comes it sends to Graphite.  
But i saw strange behavior like hits are coming properly but document some time it is coming properly but some time it is not coming properly.

Please suggest.

Thanks,  
Sumit Gupta
