Query to Display change in values of fields

I trying to write a query to check the changes in versions of a software. When using timechart (stacked) I can see multiple columns (when there was change in the version of software) and I am trying to display only those days which had occurrence of multiple columns in the graph. Any suggestions ?alt text

The streamstats command helped. Borrowed the concept from one of the Splunk blog entries (on tracking DHCP lease for a particular MAC id).

| streamstats current=false last(Version) as new_Version last(_time) AS time_of_change BY src_ip | where Version!=new_Version | convert ctime(time_of_change) AS time_of_change | rename Version as old_Version | stats count by date_wday

Can you share your query? Without knowing that, my suggestion would be to add following to your existing search.

your current search producing above output
| eval versions=0
| foreach * [eval versions=if('<<FIELD>>' > 0,versions+1,versions)]
| where versions>1 | fields -versions

Base query is index=web_prxy domain=abc useragent= | rex filed=useragent "(?P[\d]*)" | timechart count by Version limit=5

Does stereamstats helps ?

Just extending @somesoni2 's Answer to your scenario.

<YourBaseSearch>
| rename * as Count*
| rename Count_time as _time
| rename Count_span as _span
| eval versions=0
| foreach Count* [eval versions=if(<<FIELD>> > 0,versions+1,versions)]
| search versions>1
| fields - versions
| rename Count* as *
