Hi,

I am not quite sure I understand what you want. But if you just want to count the number of times 16-Apr-2012 appears you could do the following. From your list of dates.

Code:
echo "24-Jan-2012
11-Feb-2012
13-Feb-2012
15-Feb-2012
19-Feb-2012
22-Feb-2012
27-Feb-2012
28-Feb-2012
06-Mar-2012
09-Mar-2012
16-Mar-2012
21-Mar-2012
21-Mar-2012
02-Apr-2012
03-Apr-2012
03-Apr-2012
09-Apr-2012
10-Apr-2012
10-Apr-2012
10-Apr-2012
16-Apr-2012
16-Apr-2012
16-Apr-2012" | grep "$(date +%d-%b-%Y --date="1 day ago")" | wc -l

This is the version of date that I used.
Code:
date --version
date (GNU coreutils) 8.5
