I had a similar problem recently and solved it by moving my filter into a filtered query (leaving the query as a match_all), see documentation here http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/1.5/query-dsl-filtered-query.html .
I am not certain why filters do not restrict the scope of the aggregates, but queries do, but I suspect it interprets the filter (not wrapped in a filtered_query) as a post_filter ( http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/1.x/search-request-post-filter.html). Maybe someone else actually knows why.
