Comparing raw data volume Vs indexed data volume

How do i compare my raw data volume to the indexed data volume for a specific source type?

Can someone help with this query?

We have index clustering, a deployment server, and a distributed management console.

i want to make sure their same data is not indexed more than one time. (dual, triple indexing of same data)

To determine duplicate data, you could do a | stats count by _raw, _time, host, source although I promise that will be a slow and painful process.

Indexed data volume is captured in index=_internal source=*/license_usage.log sourcetype=splunkd and then you can specify a sourcetype using the st= field.

Where do you think you have duplication? Starting with the symptoms that motivated your question will help us be more surgical in what would otherwise be a very involved process.
