How can I have different chart column bar colors when comparing hourly events for multiple dates?

I have the search below that produces the result I wanted (hourly average count per day for the past four days)

search | timechart span=1h count | eval weekday=strftime(_time,"%A") | eval hour=strftime(_time,"%H") | stats avg(count) by hour weekday

The chart shows four columns representing each date for first hour (00) then another four columns for the next hour (01) and so on. However, all the columns only have one color so it is hard to distinguish each date. Is there a way to have different colors per date?

Change from stats to chart like this:

index=main | timechart span=1h count | eval weekday=strftime(_time,"%A") | eval hour=strftime(_time,"%H") | chart avg(count) by hour weekday
