How to sum over time period in MDX

I got time dimension based on DateTime column in fact table. Now i'am trying to build MDX query to sum fact rows on custom time periods. For example:

SELECT [Events Count] ON Columns, [20 seconds time periods] on Rows FROM [Common]

Result i expect:

                                             Events Count
2008-10-29 17:22:00                     1
2008-10-29 17:22:20                     2
2008-10-29 17:22:40                     1
2008-10-29 17:23:00                     56

How to build MDX query?

Use a new dimension with 60 members - one for each second. Map this dimension to your fact table. Then you can construct 3 custom sets e.g. {Second.[0]:Second.[19]}, {Second.[20]:Second.[39]}, {Second.[40]:Second.[59]} and put them on the row axes.
