I have a similar requirement, but the loop-through-and-build model looks way too expensive. I've explored the concept of executing multiple sub-searches to get filters and their subsequent counts, but my requirements allows me a sustainable, smaller set of potential dynamic filters. This is the concept, haven't put it into practice so have no idea if it scales any better than the brute force method. -- jeff
