How to build a chart on unique field

I am trying to achieve building multiple area graph on one chart where my input is:

foo=blue
foo=purple
foo=red
foo=red
foo=red
foo=purple

And when I do splunk search, I would expect my search to be:

{get all logs} | top limit=0 "foo" | fields "foo" count

Where I would produce the following results:

red:       3
purple:  2
blue:      1

Now what I am seeking to get this type of count by time with all 3 different fields in ONE area graph.
Can someone please show me how to do this?

you might want to just use a
|timechart

like

...base search
|timechart count(foo) by foo
