totalhits is the total number of hits found in elasticsearch, it might vary from what you see for multiple reasons:

1. the number of pages returned is controlled by a limit param (e.g. srlimit), in your example if you've set srlimit=1 this result looks perfectly normal
2. the index is not up to date, if for some reasons the process responsible for keeping the index up to date did not function properly then some pages that have been deleted might be in the elasticsearch index but are filtered-out when displaying the results back to the user leading to such inconsistencies in totalmatch and what you could see in the results.

If you believe you are affected the second point try to re-sync your index using the maintenance/saneitize.php (or Saneitize.php if using a recent version of CirrusSearch). If this fixes the issue you should try to understand what happened so that it does happen again.

@DCausse (WMF) - Thanks for your response.

I couldn't found the saneitize.php, i would like to inform you i am using MW-1.31

The script can be found in the CirrusSearch folder under the maintenance directory.

This is in the same folder that you found the scripts that you must have used setup CirrusSearch in the first place (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/extensions/CirrusSearch/+/refs/heads/REL1_31/maintenance/).

Are you using CirrusSearch with the REL1_31 branch as well?
