I'm trying to do something like this to alert on when people are getting 
errors whilst trying to connect to a webapp, the issue is the query itself '
windows_iis_worker_request_errors_total:irate5m' is returning non integer 
values

The idea was to evaluate over a rolling 5 minute window the number of 
errors.

of course in an ideal world I'd alert on the rate of errors using the total 
requests metrics and dividing, however the two metrics have a label 
mismatch and I am unsure how to perform that query.

Would really appreciate any assistance!

edit:

Someone in the Prometheus developer group provided me with the followering 
query which does work:

sum by (fqdn, instance, app) 
(increase(windows_iis_worker_request_errors_total{status_code!="401"}[5m]))

However I was wondering if someone would still know how to get a query 
working on the rate of errors rather than the increase in count despite the 
label mismatch between the IIS total requests and IIS error request metrics.
