Possibly somewhat unusual question: I'm looking for a way to query the
number of *lucene documents* from within Solr. This can be different
from the number of Solr documents (because of unmerged deletes/updates/
etc).

As a bit of background; we recently found this lovely little error
message in a Solr log, and we'd like to get a bit of an early warning
system going :-)

> Too many documents, composite IndexReaders cannot exceed 2147483647

If no way currently exists, I'm not adverse to hacking one in, but I
could use a few pointers in the general direction.

As an alternative strategy, I guess I could use Lucene to walk through
each index segment and add the segment info maxDoc values. But I'm not
sure if that would be a good idea.

Thanks a bunch,

 - Bram
