stats on a field with no values

[Jonathan Rochkind]

When I use the stats component on a field that has no values in the 
result set (ie, stats.missing == rowCount), I'd expect that 'min'and 
'max' would be blank.

Instead, they seem to be the smallest and largest float values or 
something, min = 1.7976931348623157E308, max = 4.9E-324 .

Is this a bug?
