For binning stats, do this

|bucket span=1w _time
|stats your_aggregations by _time, your_grouping_fields

you can add a 1 week span to your stats like this

| bucket _time span=1w

and then add _time to the by callMediaType for your stats command.

also, your stats has a by callMediaType but you did not include that in your timechart. This in and of itself would make the results different. Is that on purpose?
