I would actually recommend that you use a MySql Datetime (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/datetime.html) data type and then use a group by query to get the data back.
You can convert a unix time stamp to a MySql date using the following:
$mysql = date("Y-m-d H:i:s", $unix_timestamp);
The following query will then return a row for each date and the umber of records corresponding to that date:
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(date_field, "%b %d") Day,Count(*) FROM table_name GROUP BY Day;
