Hey,

In previous versions of Kibana, it was possible to create a date histogram which also shows the total count of document results from all dates per series. It seems that newer kibana versions doesn't support this option any more.

For example:  
There were 8420 success documents matched to the given dates.

Another example:

In current Kibana version it's missing:

My guess is that previous versions (like Kibana 3) used ElasticSearch Facets API - which was later replaced by Aggregations API. I guess it isn't possible to get this count right from the query in the new API.

However, there are pipeline aggregations, including [Sum Bucket Aggregation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-pipeline-sum-bucket-aggregation.html). So technically it is possible, but not available through Kibana aggregations in the visualization editor.

Is there a workaround here? It is important when you want to make sure that no failure documents were written - something that it is hard to notice just from the visualization.

I'm using Kibana 5.6.10.
