Wow. d3 is absolutely new to me, but it looks really powerful. I found a demo of "interactive histograms" at the following link. The demo reminds me of my favorite statistical data visualization/analysis application from a company name DataDesk, I think. At the link, the horizontal bar beneath each histogram is a scroll bar. Another interactive feature is harder to explain, but if you drag across one of the bottom 3 histograms, you will see that your drag extracts information from the main histogram as well.
