The Categorize module does exactly this. It was built for binning
data (string, scalar, you name it). The should be pretty easy and
straight forward to achieve if you look at how categorize works. If
you purchase our book "OpenDX: Paths to Visualization" we have an
example for doing cateogrical data.

Q: anyone out there using DX for statistical counting of logfile entries?
-- I had been working with SGI's MineSet and was able to make a
simple 2d/3d chart of 'page requested' and 'ip/hostname' (with the Z
axis incrementing on duplicate entries)- it was a nice way of
looking at this data. From what I can tell about briefly looking at
the DX modules, it would involve a counting or indexing function,
but will DX count/bin string data? I think MineSet had some built-in
statistical datamining features that may not be in DX. (?? anyone
used MineSet and can compare?)
-thanks
