Count number of errors within logs for last 6 months

I have directory /test/logs which has multiple logs:

audit.log
audit.log.1
audit.log.2
audit.log.3
audit.log.4
audit.log.5

audit.log is current log file and audit.log.X are archive log files. I need to search within these log files and count word "error-5" logged within last 6 months (180 days). Any entries of "error-5" older than 6 months should be ignored. These log files have following date format: 2011 May 09 04:04:38:289.

Any ideas?

Thank you,
djanu
