I am doing queries that produce a table that looks something like this:
Count | IP Address | First Seen | Last Seen | Days
5000 10.0.0.1 2005-12-10 2006-04-15 50*
6500 10.0.0.2 2006-04-01 2006-04-06 3**
*So of the 5000 events "count(*) between 2005-12-10 and 2006-04-14"
the count was distributed within 50 distinct days.
**This time the count is still high and it occured within 3 days
between 2006-04-01 and 2006-04-06.
I just cant figure out how to come up with the days part :).
