How to calculate the difference between the counts from multiple searches?

How do calculate the difference between the count of the following searches.
Tried to use the eval, but does not return results.

Need to find RunningJobs=Query1 - (Query2+Query3)
or
RunningJobs=Action1 - (Action2 - count(jobid))

index=aap_prod sourcetype="HDP:PROD:OOZIE" ":start:] with user-retry state" | rex "TOKEN\[\] APP\[(?<JobName>[^\]]*)"  | rex "ACTION\[[^\@]*(?<Action1>[^\d\]]*)" | search  Action1="@:start:"| stats count(Action1) 

| append [search index=aap_prod sourcetype="HDP:PROD:OOZIE" "@end***]Action updated in DB!" | rex "TOKEN\[\] APP\[(?<JobName>[^\]]*)"  | rex "ACTION\[[^\@]*(?<Action2>[^\d\]]*)"| search  Action2="@end"| stats count(Action2)]

| append [search index=aap_prod sourcetype="HDP:PROD:OOZIE" "ENDED WorkflowKillXCommand"  | rex "TOKEN\[\] APP\[(?<JobName>[^\]]*)"  | rex "ACTION\[[^\@]*(?<Action>[^\d\]]*)" | rex "JOB\[?(?<jobid>[\d-]+)-" |  stats count(jobid)]

How about this?

     index=aap_prod sourcetype="HDP:PROD:OOZIE" ":start:] with user-retry state" | rex "TOKEN\[\] APP\[(?<JobName>[^\]]*)"  | rex "ACTION\[[^\@]*(?<Action1>[^\d\]]*)" | search  Action1="@:start:"| stats count(Action1) as Query1

 | append [search index=aap_prod sourcetype="HDP:PROD:OOZIE" "@end***]Action updated in DB!" | rex "TOKEN\[\] APP\[(?<JobName>[^\]]*)"  | rex "ACTION\[[^\@]*(?<Action2>[^\d\]]*)"| search  Action2="@end"| stats count(Action2) as Query2]

 | append [search index=aap_prod sourcetype="HDP:PROD:OOZIE" "ENDED WorkflowKillXCommand"  | rex "TOKEN\[\] APP\[(?<JobName>[^\]]*)"  | rex "ACTION\[[^\@]*(?<Action>[^\d\]]*)" | rex "JOB\[?(?<jobid>[\d-]+)-" |  stats count(jobid) as Query3] | eval RunningJobs = Query1 - (Query2 + Query3)

I believe you want to use appendcols here instead of append, in order for last eval to work.

hi athorat,

that is a example:

 index=summary source="dailysearch" earliest=-7d@d latest=@d 
         | stats count as TotalA
         | appendcols 
             [search index=summary source="hourlysearch" earliest=@d latest=now
                   | stats count as TotalB]
         | eval Total=TotalA+TotalB
         | fields Total
