Hello,

This seams to be a similar solution like:

Term t = new Term(fieldname, term);
int count = searcher.docFreq(t);

The problem is, that in this situation it is not possible to apply a
filter object. If I don't wanna use this filter object, I would have
to use a complex search query, wich is - again - very slow. So,
unfortunatelly, your solution does not help.
