[Developers] Total Count Using Search API

[Kendra Kuhl]

Thanks Phil,

That works in the MqlRead API, but doesn't appear to work in the Search API.
At least I didn't see it when I tried this search:

urn=count

Kendra,

there are directives you can use in your query to get the number of results
without getting the results themselves. "return":"count" will give you the
number of results within a query, while "return":"estimate-count" will give
you an estimated number (and it's generally faster).
