I had reason to play with this today. The following script attempts to determine the AAS for each period of N minutes from v$active_session_history It will also work on DBA_HIST_ACTIVE_SESS_HISTORY, but may take a long time on system with many sessions. Not exactly what you asked for, but you can't easily get *exactly* what you asked for.
