I just tried to access the millis of a date field in painless and tried to use "getMillis" on the document value like doc['event_date'].value.getMillis because that is how I read the documentation. It turns out the way it works is doc['event_date'].value.millis. I might be missing something, but if not I think the docs are a bit misleading and could be corrected like suggested.

@jdconrad does the above make sense to you, if so, do you agree with the proposed changed? Maybe I just misses something obvious though. Thanks!

@cbuescher Sorry, I missed this earlier. This looks great, and I'm sure the change will be appreciated among users as dates are difficult enough as they are.

@jdconrad thanks for the review

The documentation currently tells users to use `doc['event_date'].value.getMillis` to access
milliseconds in a date. It turns out the way it works is `doc['event_date'].value.millis`. This 
change corrects this and gives a hint at how other date related methods work.
