Hi, I had run the nodes stats api(\_nodes/stats) and get the count of segments of one node is 85, which is in nodes.indices.segments.count of response body. However when I run segments api(\_cat/segments) and filt by the ip address of the node, I get the different count of segments.  
Could anyone tell me why are these two result different? Thanks a lot!
