Hello && Welcome

Not exactly sure what you want but Graylog has Metrics you can find out the total of messages from a stream.

gl\_stream\_incoming\_messages\_total{stream=“5a502a80ffe8b103591670c3”}

Are you trying to get Messages from a Index using API?  
Perhaps try testing this in the API browser on the Graylog node. Navigate to _System/Nodes_. See if that works for you.
