Yes, no problem, You can use UNION (ALL) for such.
Not sure thats what he wants at all. Anyway Union all is going to produce a very slow way of doing this needing to go back to the data 3 times where as this only goes once.
SELECT TO_CHAR( statistics_date, 'DD/MM/YYYY') AS date_in,
sum(case when message_type_id in (4,5) then total_num_messages else 0 end) as fourorfive,
sum(case when message_type_id in (6) then total_num_messages else 0 end) as six,
sum(case when message_type_id in (21) then total_num_messages else 0 end) as twentyone
FROM statistics_daily
WHERE statistics_date = CURRENT_DATE
AND telecom_operator_id <> 0
AND telephone_number IN ( $numbers )
GROUP BY date_in
You may have to play to get exactly what you want but here worse case your only doing one scan of the table not three... You may want to use views to simplify things.
