Create a summary time series showing the value of the specified summary statistic for the data points of the input time series. Valid statistic values are avg, count, max, min, last, and total. The graph below shows avg, max, min, and last for a simple input time series:

The count is the number of data points for the time series. In the example above, that is five since the last value is NaN. The total is the sum of the data points for the time series.

The most common usage of stats is in conjunction with :filter to restrict the set of results for grouped expression. When filtering, helper macros, :stat-$(name), can be used to represent applying the statistic to the input time series being filtered without explicitly repeating the input expression.

Example of usage:

name,sps,:eq,
(,nf.cluster,),:by
