Taken from @melvinwevers in #74:

However, I would also like an additional feature (maybe this is another issue, but it is related) that would allow me to search for words within a query. And more importantly to have information on this word. I could see for instance how often Amerika (relative frequency) within a corpus based on the query: "Vietnam AND Soviet"
Now I can of course add Amerika to query, but I only see the absolute number of articles increasing. I cannot see the relative frequency of the words (relative to the amount of words/tokens in the corpus). This would be more telling, I think.

If you count the number of hits that results from the query

+Vietnam +Soviet

and compare it to the number of hits for

+Vietnam +Soviet +Amerika

(which should be less),

would that answer your question?

No. Since I'm not interested the amount of articles, but words.

But you can get the number of times "Amerika" appears in the query "+Vietnam +Soviet" from the word cloud counts, right?

If it appears in the word cloud that is.

Agreed, but if it's the same information as in the word cloud, we should be able to retrieve that somehow :-) Thanks for the clarification.

I think we concluded this is related to #82.
