Have you tried something like this?

SELECT DATE_TRUNC('hour', calldate) AS Hour
        COUNT(duration)              AS Calls
        AVG(duration)                AS Average
        SUM(duration)                AS Total
FROM Cdr
WHERE Src=601
GROUP BY Hour

Alternatively, you can try to use a HAVING clause to restrict based on
specific aggregate clauses such as calculated hours.
