List pgsql-sql
I have an audit table that I am trying to get a count of the number of distinct entries per day by the external table key field. I can do a
 
select count(distinct(id)) from audit where timestamp >= '01-may-2007'
 
and get a total count. What I need is a way to group on each day and get a count per day such that the result would be something like
 
date                    count
01-may-2007        107
02-may-2007        215
03-may-2007        96
04-may-2007        0
 
 
I would prefer the 0 entries be included but can live without them. Thanks.
 
Oh, postgres 7.4 by the way.
