Indexes: According to the American Heritage Dictionary, Fourth Edition, as channeled by www.dictionary.com, "indexes" is preferred to "indices".
My dictionary mentions both, but I have never heard an educated person in my life use the word "indexes" as a plural for index rather than the word "indices". And I don't particularly care what the Google hit rates are since a great many people are poorly educated.
