missing sourcetype in index summary

I have two summary reports over an index, and one sourcetype is missing from one.

The reports are:
index="esam"
| eval fred=sourcetype.":".host
| eval time=strftime(_time,"%Y-%m-%d")
| stats count BY time, fred
| xyseries time, fred, count
and:
index="esam"
| eval date=strftime( _time, "%Y-%m-%d" ), channel=COALESCE(channel,' ')
| stats min(_time) AS min_time, max(_time) AS max_time, count BY sourcetype, date, channel, host
| fieldformat min_time=strftime(min_time, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%3N")
| fieldformat max_time=strftime(max_time, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%3N")

one sourcetype is present in the results of the first report and missing from the second.

Can you advise where to look for the problem?

most likely, there is a record with a sourcetype and no host. Update the second line of the second search to ...

 | eval date=strftime( _time, "%Y-%m-%d" ), channel=COALESCE(channel,' '), host=coalesce(host,"((missing))")

Yes. -7d@d -> now
the logs (each sourcetype is a different set of log files) are all over the same timeperiod.
