   > surely the whole point of this collector is that you want an accurate hit 
count?
   
   I wondered the same, and I could see this being true, but also not. There 
could be times where you want to only count , without collecting top hits, yet 
you'd like to stop as early as a certain threshold is reached.
   
   Elasticsearch does this by default, which means that the total hits 
threshold gets applied to the `TotalHitCountCollector` too. That is easy enough 
to implement with an early terminating collector, on the other hand I thought 
other users could benefit from this in Lucene.
   
   I had not thought of mixing multiple collectors when I opened this issue.
