Weekly report by day for events on an application

I have been asked to create a report (could be a dashboard) which displays a sum of all the Events which have been created per day for the past week for an application. The idea is that we will be able to over time see a reduction in events as we improve our website. 

We will probably want to do this for errors as well. 

I can't see anywhere in app dynamics where I can create an events metric or a search on events. 

Is there any way to do this?

Also - just to clarify - by Events I am really talking about health rule violations. Also - we are using 4.5.4.6329.

Have you tried a custom dashboard with the events and then try to do the reporting based on it?

We have tried a report which just lists the incidents, but if the incidents are in sufficient number to be scrollable, then the report doesn't scroll, which is a bit of a pain.

But also, we are not really interested in listing the incidents.

We want to display metrics of incidents. We want to compare this weeks incidents with last weeks.

For a tool that is designed to track incidents, you think it would be a bit more sophisticated at analysing them. But it seems much more concerned about what is happening now, rather than comparing now to yesterday, last week, last month, last year.
