A better way is following:
Cache the list of doc-ids for each category - you can cache this in a
BitSet.. a bit at index "doc-id" is on if the category is present in
document "doc-id", else it is off.
For user query, you need to calculate the BitSet, similar to above way. This
can be done in a HitCollector implementation.
Then simply do the intersection of user query's BitSet and each category
BitSet - find count of "on" bits, this would give you count of documents for
each category.
The BitSet operations I talked above are already provided in Java, so your
piece of code would be really small.
