> spinoff from LUCENE-3290, where yonik mentioned:
> {noformat}
> Is there currently a way to get the number of documents that have a value in 
> the field?
> Then one could compute the average length of a (sparse) field via 
> sumTotalTermFreq(field)/docsWithField(field)
> docsWithField(field) would be useful in other contexts that want to know how 
> sparse a field is (automatically selecting faceting algorithms, etc).
> {noformat}
> I think this is a useful stat to add, in case you have sparse fields for 
> heuristics or scoring.
