results size wrongly reported as 50 for large single word indexes about redisearch HOT 3 CLOSED

there's no real problem - just the number reported is wrong. for long indexes we additionally save an optimized version of the index that includes just the top 50 documents, instead of traversing the entire index when you just want that word. The 50 results reported are a bug (we report the optimized list size, not the true size), but you can safely ignore it and page beyond 50 results, I've used the index with over 5,000,000 documents easily. I'm changing the issue title.
