How can I visualize daily license consumption and increase?

Can I please know how to track the license increase? For example , I have an sourcetype "access_log" which has contributed 500GB of license yesterday but today if the same sourcetype contributed 700GB, I would like to see it in visualization. Right now, I am using below query to find top contributing sourcetypes.

index="_internal" source="*metrics.log" per_sourcetype_thruput | chart sum(eval(kb/1024/1024)) AS GB by series | sort – GB

It is the amount of license usage per day, per source type.

Have you looked in the Monitoring Console on your license master for this? You can find historical averages and usage for these. See the documentation here : http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.6.3/DMC/DMCoverview
