Host Check-in to Sourcetype

Hi,

We have a sourcetype type called "WinHostMon" and many hosts report into it.   Does anyone have any SPL laying around that would allow me to query the last time a host checked in with that particular Sourcetype?

Like this:

| tstats max(_indextime) AS time_event_was_indexed max(_time) AS time_event_happened WHERE index="*" AND sourcetype="WinHostMon" BY host
| sort 1 - time_event_was_indexed
