J Mohamed Zahoor commented on SOLR-2242:
----------------------------------------
As i mentioned in my earlier comment, We have experimented with stream-lib
implementation of HLL for similar purpose... and it is good.
It makes good sense to have probabilistic data structures for large number of
docs.
BTW, we are using SOLR as a analytics engine with great success.

> When returning facet.field=<name of field> you will get a list of matches for
> distinct values. This is normal behavior. This patch tells you how many
> distinct values you have (# of rows). Use with limit=-1 and mincount=1.
> The feature is called "namedistinct". Here is an example:
> Parameters:
> facet.numTerms or f.<field>.facet.numTerms = true (default is false) - turn
> on distinct counting of terms
> facet.field - the field to count the terms
> It creates a new section in the facet section...
> http://localhost:8983/solr/select?shards=localhost:8983/solr,localhost:7574/solr&indent=true&q=*:*&facet=true&facet.mincount=1&facet.numTerms=true&facet.limit=-1&facet.field=price
> http://localhost:8983/solr/select?shards=localhost:8983/solr,localhost:7574/solr&indent=true&q=*:*&facet=true&facet.mincount=1&facet.numTerms=false&facet.limit=-1&facet.field=price
> http://localhost:8983/solr/select?shards=localhost:8983/solr,localhost:7574/solr&indent=true&q=*:*&facet=true&facet.mincount=1&facet.numTerms=true&facet.limit=-1&facet.field=price
> This currently only works on facet.field.

> <lst name="facet_fields">...</lst>
> <lst name="facet_numTerms">

> <lst name="facet_dates"/>
> <lst name="facet_ranges"/>

> OR with no sharding-
> <lst name="facet_numTerms">
> <int name="price">14</int>
> </lst>
> {code}
> Several people use this to get the group.field count (the # of groups).
