I am trying to invoke a wildcard query with a max rewrite clauses set to a number (say 100). We are using C#-NEST as  
the client. While trying to set the rewrite method to top\_term\_boost\_100 using the NEST api `.Rewrite(Nest.RewriteMultiTerm.TopTermsBoostN));`  
I could not find a way to replace N with 100. Can someone guide me how to fix this?

I have a similar question.

I have this query in elastic DSL.

```
POST my-index/_search
{
  "query": {
    "wildcard": {
      "Author": {
        "value": "*joe*",
        "rewrite": "top_terms_15"
      }
    }
  }
}

```

I want to write the same query using Nest SDK.

```
private Nest.WildcardQuery CreateQuery()
{
    Nest.WildcardQuery query = new Nest.WildcardQuery();
    query.Field = "Author";
    query.Value = "*joe*";           

    query.Rewrite = Nest.RewriteMultiTerm.TopTermsN;
    //Now how to specify a value for N ? 

    return query;
}

```

How can I specify a value for N ? (when using Nest.RewriteMultiTerm.TopTermsN)

Elastic version 5.2.1 Kibana version 5.2.1 Nest version 5.2.0
