 === Count API
 
-The count API allows to easily execute a query and get the number of
-matches for that query. It can be executed across one or more indices.
-The query can either be provided using a simple query string as a
-parameter, or using the <<query-dsl,Query DSL>> defined within the request
-body. Here is an example:
+Gets the number of matches for a search query.

+// TEST[setup:twitter]

+NOTE: The query being sent in the body must be nested in a `query` key, same as
+the <<search-search,search api>> works.

+The count API can be applied to <<search-multi-index,multiple indices>>.
+
+The operation is broadcast across all shards. For each shard id group, a replica 
+is chosen and executed against it. This means that replicas increase the 
+scalability of count.

-==== Request Parameters
-
-When executing count using the query parameter `q`, the query passed is
-a query string using Lucene query parser. There are additional
-parameters that can be passed:
-
-[cols="<,<",options="header",]
-|=======================================================================
-|Name |Description
-|`df` |The default field to use when no field prefix is defined within the
-query.
-
-|`analyzer` |The analyzer name to be used when analyzing the query string.
-
-|`default_operator` |The default operator to be used, can be `AND` or
-`OR`. Defaults to `OR`.
-
-|`lenient` |If set to true will cause format based failures (like
-providing text to a numeric field) to be ignored. Defaults to false.
-
-|`analyze_wildcard` |Should wildcard and prefix queries be analyzed or
-not. Defaults to `false`.
-
-|`terminate_after` |The maximum count for each shard, upon
-reaching which the query execution will terminate early.
-If set, the response will have a boolean field `terminated_early` to
-indicate whether the query execution has actually terminated_early.
-Defaults to no terminate_after.
-|=======================================================================
-
-[float]
-==== Request Body
-
-The count can use the <<query-dsl,Query DSL>> within
-its body in order to express the query that should be executed. The body
-content can also be passed as a REST parameter named `source`.
-
-Both HTTP GET and HTTP POST can be used to execute count with body.
-Since not all clients support GET with body, POST is allowed as well.
-
-[float]
-==== Distributed
-
-The count operation is broadcast across all shards. For each shard id
-group, a replica is chosen and executed against it. This means that
-replicas increase the scalability of count.
-
-[float]
-==== Routing
-
-The routing value (a comma separated list of the routing values) can be
-specified to control which shards the count request will be executed on.
