Getting Data In

REST API: searching piped into stats, no events available

If I run this search through the web interface:

error | stats count by host | sort - count

And then venture over to port 8089 and check the job, I can see the search summary and hit the Events link at the bottom of the page to get a list of the events.

However, if I run that search through the REST API, the Events link goes to an empty page. How can I get a list of the events from that search using the REST API?

Thanks, Jon

If I set the status_buckets POST variable to 300 (as the is the default from the web interface search), I get eventAvailableCount > 0.
