adjust x-axis labels flot js

Question

Is there any way to limit the number of x axis values that will be displayed given that there are many points to be displayed on the graph? Otherwise,the x-axis labels overlap if you don't zoom. For example, please see the fiddle I've created http://jsfiddle.net/ggggg/jx3q8uoy/10/ enter code here. You can zoom in and out with the mouse wheel. If you click on update I reload new data on the graph but since there are many points for the size of the graph the x-axis values get mixed with each other which is not good. One cannot make a difference which is which unless they zoom. Is there any way to limit the number of x-axis labels to be shown to just a few so that they don't get mixed in such a way when the point amount is big and if you zoom in then you will be able to see the specific x-axis labels? For example, please have a look at the vis.js graph here http://visjs.org/examples/graph2d/03_groups.html. See when you zoom in or zoom out with the mouse wheel the x-axis labels get rescaled and many of them get hidden and if you zoom in they are shown. I need something like for flot.js

Thanks
