so you already have username and _time. you should be able to do something like this:

base search | bin _time as date span=1d |  stats count by username date| stats avg(count) by username

The first stats will give you daily counts. The second one will average them.
I am not sure if there is a way to combine the two stats commands, so maybe someone else will have something more elegant
