The Statistics Board is a graph of the number of events of a certain type for a specified timeframe. The type of events and amount of time between the points of the graph are configured in the board settings (see Configuring a Statistics Board).
The points of the graph change over time and depend on the current time and interval specified in the settings.
The points are calculated every minute/hour/day/etc. based on the selected unit of measurement (if the interval is specified in minutes, then every minute; if specified in hours, then every hour, and so forth) and is performed as follows:
For example, the interval is set to 10 minutes on this sample graph here. The current time (1:07:33 p.m.) is the last point on the graph, so after rounding this to the next whole minute we get the value for the next-to-last point: 1:07:00 p.m. Correspondingly, the points before it are 12:57:00 p.m., 12:47:00 p.m., etc.
When the current time becomes 1:08:00 p.m., the points will be updated to 12:58:00 p.m., 12:48:00 p.m., etc.
The graph displays the current number of events. The number of events is recalculated every minute and does not depend on the interval chosen.
For example, for this graph with a time interval of 2 hours and a current time of 1:48:23 p.m., the current number of events equals 413, for the period from 11:48:00 a.m. to 1:48:00 p.m.

Clicking anywhere on the graph jumps to the nearest point and the relevant value is indicated.
