This search list extension offers extra tags:

  'alltime':    All time statistics.
                For example, "what is the all time high temperature?"
                $alltime.outTemp.max

  'seven_day':  Statistics for the last seven days, i.e., since midnight
                seven days ago.  For example, "what is the maximum wind
                speed in the last seven days?"
                $seven_day.wind.max

  'thirty_day': Statistics for the last thirty days, i.e., since midnight
                thirty days ago.  For example, "what is the maximum wind
                speed in the last thirty days?"
                $thirty_day.wind.max

wee_extension --install=/home/weewx/examples/xstats
