Splunk Search

Is there another way to use min max?

I am running search.
basesearch  |eventstats count values(date) as Date by ID 

result I get count 2 or 3 or 1
how do I get count=1 OR count=3. 
how I use max(count)  and min(count). 
I need this because min(count) will new data and max(count) will old data. 
Is there any other way to do this?

Perhaps you mean streamstats to number the events which would normally be in reverse chronological order i.e. newest first?

basesearch
| streamstats count by ID

but I want only output new finding separate table and old in separate table.

For new use:

basesearch
| streamstats count by ID
| where count == 1

For old use:

basesearch
| streamstats count by ID
| eventstats max(count) as last by ID
| where count == last
