PublisherStatsImpl count always reports 0

[kasyapakuchi]

I'm trying to use producer.getStats() (which is of type PublisherStatsImpl) to get producer stats for every produce txn.

1. Noticed that count always returns 0. When debugged noticed that count is annotated with @JsonIgnore, which means count is not being serialised/deserialised and being skipped in the stats response. Can someone help how can I get the count here.

Basically, I want to know this - When a producer connection is closed, I want to know now of msgs produced in this txn, size of msgs, throughout etc., I'm calling producer.getStats() in the producerClosed() method of BrokerInterceptor.
