this is overkill. the query you actually need is this (there even can be a better way):
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(pub_date, "%Y %M") as pub_date, COUNT(*) as count FROM app_posts GROUP BY pub_date ORDER BY count DESC i have no idea how to pull this query by the Django ORM but you can run this as a raw query like this: Post.objects.raw("SELECT DATE_FORMAT(pub_date, "%Y %M") as pub_date, COUNT(*) as count FROM app_posts GROUP BY pub_date ORDER BY count DESC") kolay gelsin.
