How to get count of multiple strings with common index and source type?

I'm trying to create a dashboard which will display pie-charts from different results. For this, I've multiple strings from same index and same source type.
What I've tried:
1. get counts from each and then use in pie-chart with tokens.
2. append required search results and then use them in pie-chart.
Both are OK. but i think there might be some effective way to do this.

like: index=$index$ sourcetype=$sourcetype$ "my test string1" | count AS count1 "my test string2" | count AS count2

@habisht,

Test this with one of your strings,

index=$index$ sourcetype=$sourcetype$ ("my test string1"  OR "my test string2" OR ..)
|stats count(eval(searchmatch("my test string1"))) as string1 ,count(eval(searchmatch("my test string2"))) as string2, ...
