I am using historical data about people using data_series. I want to
display it to the user with date and time but I am not able to
understand how to convert the dates received to user recognizable
format. say DD/MM/YY HH:MM:SS

Can you please tell how to go about it or give to a pointer to know
these details.

Also does Chartbeat provide an API to find average,min,max time spent
by each user on the website.

Looking forward for your reply

Thanks

Dates returned by the chartbeat API are unix timestamps. So to convert
it to a string in for example javascript you can do:
new Date(1315541100 * 1000).toString()

You can't get it on a per user level, but you can get it on a per page
level. Is that what you want?
