Which version of TShark are you using?  On both v1.8.4 and SVN with

$ tshark -z io,stat,2 -t ad -r /tmp/out.pcap

I get an output of:

It doesn't have the "time range" you mentioned in comment #0, but it does have
a real "absolute time".  What I don't like about your "time range" suggestion,
is the difficulty of handling "rollover" when an (uneven) interval passes over
seconds/minutes/hours.  That's why I made the suggestion of listing both
"absolute start" and "absolute end" of the interval.  I would think something
like this:

| 2012-12-05 16:24:59 <> 2012-12-05 16:25:01 |     72 |  30223 |


I'm willing to work on fixing this, but I want to know how different the
current SVN functionality is from your desired functionality.
