Is there a way to combine the sum(b) of the default index and main index in the license_usage.log file

I want one total for the bytes sent to both the main and default index since they are both the same index. The license_usage.log file records them as different indexes because I believe we have forwarders not configured to send to a specific index.

02-17-2016 05:07:19.006 -0500 INFO  LicenseUsage - type=Usage s="WinEventLog:System" st="WinEventLog:System" h="WS-Piano" o="" idx="default" i="09F538B3-E658-4C42-A213-EE89679465E0" pool="auto_generated_pool_enterprise" b=5922 poolsz=204010946560

02-17-2016 05:07:20.488 -0500 INFO  LicenseUsage - type=Usage s="udp:514" st=syslog h="129.6.79.11" o="" idx="main" i="E3E369A5-DE83-47BC-804E-153BC246D021" pool="auto_generated_pool_enterprise" b=94889 poolsz=204010946560

Here is the search used by the Usage over 30 days for index use via the licensing selection under settings. I have removed the eval's that are not pertinent to the question.

| eval idx=if(len(idx)=0 OR isnull(idx),"(UNKNOWN)",idx) | bin _time span=1d | stats sum(b) as b by _time, pool, s, st,idx

Is there a way to rename those idx called "default" to "main" before doing the sum and then be able to sum both default and main into one total for my report?

why does it show only top 10 indexes? how do you get so see more? In today world can we see this in GB's? Or even MB's?

How about this?

| eval idx=case(len(idx)=0 OR isnull(idx),"(UNKNOWN)",idx="default","main",1=1,idx) | bin _time span=1d | stats sum(b) as b by _time, pool, s, st,idx
