If all you want is frequencies, could you use table()?
dd <- c("2001-01-02", "2001-01-02", "2001-01-02", "2001-01-02",
"2001-01-02", "2001-01-02", "2001-01-02", "2001-01-02", "2001-01-02",
"2001-01-03", "2001-01-03", "2001-01-03", "2001-01-03", "2001-01-03",
"2001-01-03", "2001-01-03", "2001-01-03", "2001-01-04", "2001-01-04")
ddd <- as.Date(dd)
str(ddd)
table(ddd)
as.numeric(table(ddd))
