Why don't you filter them beforehand:

POST /test/_search
{
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "filter": [
        { 
          "term":{ 
            "active": true 
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }, 
  "aggs": {
    "group": {
      "terms": {
        "field": "country"
      },
      "aggs": {
        "group_docs": {
            "top_hits": {
              "size": 2,
              "sort": [
                {
                  "collected": 
                  {"order":"desc"}
                }
              ]
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }

This query will group your data by county where active is true.
