Hi, FYI: I figured out a solution my self. I wanted a smart way to get the shard count for a query (how many documents were found in each shard). The "smart" consisted in having all these counts in just one query using faceting. I was asking if Solr could help with this, e.g. had some smart info for shards, I could facet out of the box. But apparently it does not.
But in my situation I can use my knowledge of how the shards are organised. They are organised chronologically, and I happen to know the date boundaries. My solution is simply to facet those boundaries. In this way I can query once and include all known shards and have their count for the search. This may have a performance penalty, but it is at least for now a simple way.
