Description
### Problem Statement
Looking to set up an alert on session count to detect:
1. outage (i.e .customers not able to use app for any reason)
2. potential issue w/ session-tracking
### Solution Brainstorm
We have alerts for % (e.g. [CFSR + CFUR](https://docs.sentry.io/product/alerts/alert-types/#sessions-crash-rate-alerts)), but not sessions count().
p.s. Looks like we already store sessions count (see screenshot)

### Product Area

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the existing session-count data and the CFSR/CFUR alert types linked in the issue. Clarify the alert conditions for outage detection and session-tracking problems, then define acceptance criteria for alerting on session counts and validate them against the stored counts.
