Hi Ivan, thanks for taking the time to respond. After reading up on this, I 
believe you're correct: field collapsing would give me exactly what I want. 
I also started reading about aggregations, and *perhaps* that will work as 
well -- it seems like I could create a bucket for each uid and then count 
the number of buckets. Since the docs are pretty scarce on aggregations 
thus far, it's hard to say. When I have some free time, I'll check out the 
1.0 beta and see if I can come up with something. Thanks again!

Matt
