Using Mongoid

stages =  [{ 
         "$group" => {  "_id" => { "date_column_name"=>"$created_at" }},
         "plays_count" => { "$sum" => 1 }
    }]
@array_of_objects = ModelName.collection.aggregate(stages, {:allow_disk_use => true})

OR

stages =  [{ 
          "$group" => {  
             "_id" => { 
                       "year" => { "$year" => "$created_at" },
                       "month" => { "$month" => "$created_at" },
                       "day" => { "$dayOfMonth" => "$created_at" }
              }
           },
          "plays_count" => { "$sum" => 1 }
    }]
@array_of_objects = ModelName.collection.aggregate(stages, {:allow_disk_use => true})
