Is there a way to use a facet so that it creates a histogram on every X occurrences in a sequence?

I'm not seeing how this would be done, but is it possible to have a facet that instead of using date_interval, uses an interval to give the stats on every X number of occurrences? I have tried doing it like:

"value_field": "date",
"key_field": "net",
"interval": 1000

But it returns the histogram as groupings of net being in 1000 (ie a bucket for all nets between -1000 and 0, etc).

If I reverse the key_field and value_field I get the entire dataset back.

As an example, if net was a sequence of numbers ordered by date like:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7
and I set the interval to 2, I would like to get back a histogram like:

count: 2
value: 3,

count: 2,
value: 7,

count: 2,
value: 11,

Still cryptic..., I am not sure I understand, but won't histogram facet
with interval set to 2 on net will do it for you?

Shay, I have a similar need and I believe you're correct with setting an
interval of 2 in Jeremy's case.

Is there a way to accomplish the same thing but with out a field like
"net"? (ex: facet on groups of 100 ordered by date)

Or do I need to always maintain a "counter" field like Jeremy's "net" field?

Thanks!
Chris
