==== Offset

By default the bucket keys start with 0 and then continue in even spaced steps of `interval`, e.g. if the interval is 10 the first buckets

This can be best illustrated with an example. If there are 10 documents with values ranging from 5 to 14, using interval `10` will result in
two buckets with 5 documents each. If an additional offset `5` is used, there will be only one single bucket [5-14] containing all the 10
This can be best illustrated with an example. If there are 10 documents with integer values ranging from 5 to 14, using interval `10` will result in
