Question on a Statistical Measure - Consistency of Usage

I am building a report using the Power BI API connector to gather usage information.

I would like to measure what I would call the consistency of use. 

 

For instance, given the views of two report over a 12 day period, one with a view each day and the second with 6 views on day one and 6 views on day 12, I would like to demostrate that the first shows more consistant use than the second.

d116
d21 
d31 
d41 
d51 
d61 
d71 
d81 
d91 
d101 
d111 
d1216
   
Avg16

 

The Average returns 1 for the first period and 6 for the second period. But that is misleading. The second period clearly had less activity throughout the period. I would want to be able to show that Report 1 shows more consistant use.

 

What statistical measurement would be used to describe the consistancy of activity over a period of time? How would I implement this in Power Bi?

 

Thx

@beenherebefore ,

Have attached a pbix that will give you a couple of ideas.

Main point is to Count the Days viewed rather than a sum of actual views.

Have created a Multi-row Card Visual and a Column Chart....just ideas to help get you started.

Regards,
