How to know the number of events processed in a dashboard?

Question1. I have a dashboard with multiple timecharts type query running with different logic and different preset times.
I want to know how many events were processed as a part of that chart to run. And if possible can I have that value see in that same dashboard?

Question2. I want a query that should be able to tell me how many events are there in a specific time period I choose. e.g. 25th Aug from 10 to 14 or something like 15th August all day. possibly in a timechart visualization like monday = 30000 events, tuesday = 45666 events .....etc.. in a line chart

the timechart command will do this task...

*|timechart span=1d count

i am not much getting your query...
maybe, you can copy paste the dashboard query..
or, you can create an alert with the same splunk query and email you the results..

thanks and best regards,

@inventsekar Let me give an example.

There is timechart query running in my dashboard and the query essentially gives me the average response time of requests with a span=1d over last 24 hours in a line chart format. And the query runs absolutely fine with no error.
What I am interested here to know is, "as a part of this query execution how many events were processed" ? OR what are the number of events that were used by the query ?
