Ah ok, the response i get when executing only the following, produces no facet counts. It could be a bug.
facet.query=[price:[* TO 500], price:[500 TO *] However, when i add an unrelated facet field, i do get the desired count: query=[price:[* TO 500], price:[500 TO *]],q=*:*,facet.field=cat output: price:[* TO 500]:2 price:[500 TO *]:3 Looking at StatsComponent i can't see a way to produce this result: for given price set (150.99,199.99,699.99,930.0,2300.0), output: price:[150.99 TO 199.99]:2 price:[699.99 TO 930.0]:2 price:[930.0 TO 2300.0]:1 That is if I wanted to produce up-to three price ranges.
