Index Stats provides the results of your whole website pages, how they are indexed in search engines. Google lists all the results by using Google’s advanced operator. Below are some special operators which Google includes listing the results are indexed pages:

Indexed pages in your site
To check the indexed pages in your website. Use below operator to know the indexed pages in your site

(Don’t provide the gap between operator and website URL, ex: site:xyz.com)
You can also use the operator to search your whole domain, sub domain or sub directory of your website to check the indexed pages – for example, site:xyz.com/ddd.html

To exclude the pages from your search results, provide a minus sign before the operator, it provides other suggested searches. For example, the search site:xyz.com –site:ddd.xyz.com gives all the indexed pages on the xyz.com domain without the pages from ddd.xyz.com.

Pages that link to your site's front page
To check the sites linking to www.xyz.com, use link:xyz.com. (You can use link:xyz.com or link:www.xyz.com, but the first one will give you more search results.) You can also search for links to specific pages or directories: link:xyz.com/ddd.html.

The current cache of your site
The cache: operator will display you an archived copy of a page indexed by Google. For example, cache:xyz.com shows the last indexed version of the xyz homepage, along with this information it also display the date when cache was created. You can also check a plain-text version of that page. This information is useful because from this we can understand how Googlebot sees the page.
If you want to control a cached version of your page, you should always use the noarchive Meta Tags like this:

<Meta name="robots" content="noarchive">

By using noarchive tags users will not see a cached link in search results while Google still crawled and indexed that page also.

Pages those are similar to your site
This operator provides information on similar websites of your site for which you are looking for. It displays the same results when we click the similar pages next to our search results page. Related operator displays all the websites which are similar to each other.
To check the similarity of different sites Google determine by using several factors. It doesn’t depend on quality of your sites, no impact on your page rank, and also determine how Google indexes your site.

Information we have about your site
This operator will display the links to other advanced searches which are listed in Webmaster Tools at Index Stats page. Check this tool by using operator info: xyz.com
