Comment 8 for bug 670358

OK I think I need to spam this bug a bit.

While I agree that use cases and user stories are the way to go. There is no such thing as a simple use case for some features. Developers want to rank their stuff so they need COUNTS. And currently we have no simple way of exposing COUNTS.
The use case is for developers (developer case?) where the developer wants to enrich the sorting/ranking of his results.

"I want to know how many times a set of subjects was used without having to ask for all the events and then iterate and count"

If the use case if going to be for actual users it would sound more like

"I want my search results to be sorted better" The user cares nothing about how its done.

It is a simple as that.
