Plot graph using timechart

Hi everyone, I'm quite new to splunk. I'm trying to plot a graph using timechart with starting time of the event and the ending time of the event.

This is my search query:


sourcetype="Traffic" | stats earliest(_time) as startOfEvent latest(_time) as endOfEvent range(_time) as duration by Message

This is the return result from the query:


Message | startOfEvent | endOfEvent| duration

msg1 | 1368457298 | 1368459923 | 2625

msg2 | 1368457298 | 1368457821 | 523


How can i turn this into a timechart?

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

If you could include some metrics you would like, it might be easier to show you specifics. But the general format is:

sourcetype="Traffic" | timechart count by Message span=5m

This will show the count by Message over time.
