The alerting rules definitely seems like one place that needs some work.
What he's wanting to do seems to make sense with count.  Depending on what's
triggering the alert you may not know what the interval between events is.
Traps or syslog messages could be coming a lot faster or slower than any of
the check intervals.

Personally, I'm having a lot of trouble with both duplicate alerts and
alerts being sent that shouldn't be based on the rules.  So far, I haven't
been able to figure out the how or why.

I would use a delay time in the rule not count.
