Timechart for unique login ids

I've following data in my summary index by time which runs in time range -1d@d to @d every day @ midnight:

09-01-11: userid=1, userid=2, userid=5
09-02-11: userid=2, userid=7, userid=11
09-03-11: userid=1, userid=9, userid=2, userid=33
09-04-11: userid=15, userid=1, userid=11, userid=33
09-05-11: userid=2, userid=9, uesrid=11
09-06-11: userid=50

In above case, I want to show the time chart as shown below:

09-01-11: count=3
09-02-11: count=2 (Since userid=2 is already counted earlier)
09-03-11: count=2 (Since userid=1 & userid=2 is already counted earlier)
09-04-11: count=1 (since userid=1, userid=11, userid=33 are already counted earlier)
09-05-11: count=0 (since userid=2, userid=9, uesrid=11 are already counted earlier)
09-06-11: count=1

How can I display timechart which will show unique userid count over time?

Thanks

Hello Experts,

I'm sure this can be done in Splunk but still trying to figure out how to do calculations with time chart...

Please note that the userid=12 are different log lines. So, in my summary index, they're actually represented as shown below:

09-01-11: userid=1
          userid=2
          userid=5
09-02-11: userid=2
          userid=7
          userid=11
09-03-11: userid=1
          userid=9
          userid=2
          userid=33

Basically, I've simply added these log lines containing userid key/value pair in the summary index for each day.

I'll appreciate if you can post the splunk query to display the timechart.

Thanks!
