List number of results per collection
Is it possible to list relevant Low Search collection labels along with number of results for a given query?
As an example, I'm attempting to re-create the summary results shown at the top of the left column on this link:

There isn't a way to do this that I'd recommend, really. Due to the nature of combination of native and its own filtering, Low Search cannot ascertain the full list of filtered entry IDs to calculate other number of results.
The method that is possible, but I wouldn't recommend for performance reasons is using multiple low_search:results tags for the query, each targeting a different collection, using {absolute_results} to output the number. You'll need to enable pagination and even add (empty) pagination code to the tag in order to get that number.

OK, thanks for the feedback.
By the look of the original site it's getting data for the counts via skipping pagination all together. And it takes a loooooong time to load.
