Simplified paths for node stats include: /_node/stats and /_node/{nodeIds}/stats. Also, add specific flags to get only specific stats, by default, returning indices stats. The flags are: indices, os, process, jvm, network, transport, and http. clear can be used to clear all flags and then only apply the ones provided. For example: _nodes/stats?clear=true&os=true&process=true.

Specific REST paths are provided for each stats type, for example: /_node/stats/process, and /_node/{nodeId}/stats/process.

As usual, nodeId can be a list of node ids, or a list of IPs, hostnames, or attribute matching, all supporting wildcards.
