SPSS: Recoding time to make sampling rate explicit - spss

Question

I have data from an experiment that is sampling responses between 59 to 60 hz. There is no way to predict the drop-down in sampling rate throughout the experiment which runs for 18 minutes.
Each of the sampled responses are numbered from 1 to N (for total number of rows) showing relative passage of time, stored in variable 'frame'. I also have a unix time stamp marking absolute time stored in 'unixtime'. But unixtime is reported in whole integers & not in fractional units. For example:
1376925380 may be repeated 59 times;
1376925381 may be repeated 60 times in the data file.
I would like to create a new variable that tracks each consecutive frame (or sampled response) from 1 to 60 or from 1 to 59, as the case may be, for each given unixtime stamp in SPSS. See the desired re-arrangement below. Any help w/ appropriate SPSS-syntax is appreciated!
unixtime newframe
1376925380 1
1376925380 2
1376925380 3
1376925380 4
1376925380 5
1376925380 6
....
1376925380 58
1376925380 59
1376925381 1
1376925381 2
1376925381 3
1376925381 4
.... ....
1376925381 60
1376925382 1
1376925382 2
....

If I understand correctly, you can use LAG to figure out your counter between the time stamps. Example below.
*fake data.
set seed 10.
input program.
loop #i = 1 to 100.
loop #j = 1 to TRUNC(RV.UNIFORM(59,61)).
compute unixtime = 1376925379 + #i.
end case.
end loop.
end loop.
end file.
end input program.
*Using lag to calculate newframe variable.
DO IF ($casenum = 1) OR (unixtime <> lag(unixtime)).
compute newframe = 1.
ELSE.
compute newframe = lag(newframe) + 1.
END IF.
exe.
