A little more detail, please.  Do you want to do this for a plot?  Or  
do you want to do this to then manipulate data? There are a variety of  
functions:

	get_data_counts;
	get_model_counts;
	get_data_flux;

etc.  that will probably come in handy.  You can then start redefining  
data:

	put_data_counts(1,get_data_counts(1)-get_model_counts(1));

(But you'd probably want to redefine the statistics.)  There are other  
games we can play, too, with defining the model_counts, say, to be a  
background file. But I think I'd need a little more detail on what you  
are trying to do.
