Why not create a table below to summarize this information? Just use the base search in a search module, then use PostProcess/HiddenPostProcess for the chart and table.

You can change the sum to count in timechart command. This way it will show 16:2 in tooltip but the graph will also be adjusted to show just the count on y-axis.

Not sure if this can be done but you can read up on the tool tip properties here which *might allow you to do it. However if it is possible you will need to use advanced xml for your dashboard in order for it to render using flashchart instead of jschart as the doc's state jschart is not supported with the tool tip properties..
