Most logs are written in append mode so ascending date/time comes 
naturally.  This perl should list each instance and the count:

my %id_count;
my %id_date; #date already seen;
while (<>) {
my  ($x,$id,$date,$time) = split /,/;
   next if ($x == 'X'); #skip header
   next if ($time le  "09:00:00");
   next if ($id_date{$id} eq $date);
   $id_date{$id} = $date;
   print "$id - $date - $time\n";
   $id_count{$id}++;
}
print "----\n";
while (( my $id,$count) = each(%id_count)) {
print "$id late $count days\n";
}
