REST API - Get Data - Aggregation?

We're looking for the ' aggregate'functionality that was available via RPC Get-Data. Is there anything similar available for REST? (documentation optional :D)

    @PatrickATL There is currently no REST equivalent for the RPC getData aggregate option. That's not to say we can't add one though :)/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20"> Can you provide more info regarding your use case for wanting it? Thanks!

    We (Patrick and I) were using the aggregate options on the RPC to pull period min,max,average,change for our ticketing integration. To do some of this information now, it would require a few iterations through the get-data REST functions to get ... say, a 7 day change percentage, or average. We use this to enhance the messages that we create in Autotask on certain alerts that are triggered.
