Hi kunalmao,
why you want to use tstats if the second solution solves your needs?
If the problem is performance, use | metasearch before index=*

To add to this post for future readers, if you did want to use tstats, then you could using the following syntax:

| tstats count WHERE (index=*) BY index _time span=1d prestats=t 
| timechart span=1d count by index

adjust the span period (on both lines as they must match) to whatever you prefer based on your search (1h, 4h, 5m, etc...)

I would do it by including  _time in the tstats' by statement

| tstats count where index=* by _time index | timechart span=1mon sum(count) by index
