Comment (by infinity0):

 If you "divide total directory requests in a UTC day by 10", this is still
 "users per day" (i.e. you observed x requests, or x/10 users, during the
 course of that day), so I think my patch should still be applied.

 However, I am confused by your earlier comment that "The graphs would
 still look the same if we used 1 week as smallest unit on the x axis".

 - the default graph uses 1 month as the smallest ''display'' unit. You are
 right that if 1 week were used instead, the graph would still look the
 same. But that's not what my patch is about.
 - OTOH, if you instead "divide total requests in a UTC '''week''' by 10",
 then the graphs would ''not'' look the same, and you would want to apply
 my patch but say "per week" instead of "per day".

 This last point is what my patch attempts to clarify. Without saying "per
 x", the user has no obvious visual indicator what the aggregation period
 is.
