What causes an increment to idx_scan in pg_stat_user_indexes? "Select" queries only? When used to enforce column uniqueness? When used for foreign-key constraints?

I see lots of indexes with an idx_scan-count of zero but which are not actually superfluous as they are required to enforce constraints.

Ultimately, I'm trying to come up with a better way to search for truly useless indexes.

Cheers,
Steve
