visits{visits1_5 '1 to 5' expression('visits > 0 And visits < 6'),
   visits6_10 '6 to 10' expression('visits > 5 And visits < 11'),

   visits21ormore 'More than 20' expression('visits > 20'),
   mean 'Mean' mean(visits), Stddev 'Standard deviation' stddev(visits)}

Here is a table that has this axis on the side:
