Outlier Function Issue

I know the outlier function removes the outliers from the resulting list of data, but is there a way to just identify what the outliers are out of the list of data?

Maybe the anomalousvalue or anamolies commands will get you what you need? Not sure how to get a list of data that the outlier command removes.

The anomalousvalue command looks at the entire event set and considers the distribution of values when deciding if a value is anomalous or not. For numerical fields, it identifies or summarizes the values in the data that are anomalous either by frequency of occurrence or number of standard deviations from the mean.
