[Here](https://www.elastic.co/blog/sparse-timeseries-and-timelion) we are introduced to scale\_interval in timelion can we have the same functionality in an Elasticsearch query?  
here is the synopsis,

> But what if you want to see a bytes per second chart? No matter what interval is selected? We can now employ scale\_interval(1s). Below we can see that that chart’s y-axis extents and shape stay about the same as we change the interval. This is because we’re scaling the chart to always represent a 1 second rate.
