    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `abstract List<FacetResult>` | `getAllDims(int topN)` Returns topN labels for any dimension that had hits, sorted by the number of hits that dimension matched; this is used for "sparse" faceting, where many different dimensions were indexed, for example depending on the type of document.
    `abstract Number` | `getSpecificValue(String dim, String... path)` Return the count or value for a specific path.
    `abstract FacetResult` | `getTopChildren(int topN, String dim, String... path)` Returns the topN child labels under the specified path.

    - #### getTopChildren

          public abstract FacetResult getTopChildren(int topN,
                                                     String dim,
                                                     String... path)
                                              throws IOException

      Returns the topN child labels under the specified path. Returns null if the specified path doesn't exist or if this dimension was never seen.
      Throws:
        `IOException`

    - #### getSpecificValue

          public abstract Number getSpecificValue(String dim,
                                                  String... path)
                                           throws IOException

      Return the count or value for a specific path. Returns -1 if this path doesn't exist, else the count.
      Throws:
        `IOException`

    - #### getAllDims

          public abstract List<FacetResult> getAllDims(int topN)
                                                throws IOException

      Returns topN labels for any dimension that had hits, sorted by the number of hits that dimension matched; this is used for "sparse" faceting, where many different dimensions were indexed, for example depending on the type of document.
      Throws:
        `IOException`
