highcharts example for using data from database with mvc - asp.net-mvc

Question

Does anyone have a simple example of populating a Highchart with data from a MS SQL DB using DotNet.Highcarts?
I have the demo working with static data
Highcharts chart = new Highcharts("chart")
.SetCredits(new Credits { Enabled = false })
.InitChart(new Chart { DefaultSeriesType = ChartTypes.Column })
.SetTitle(new Title { Text = "Membership Overview" })
.SetXAxis(new XAxis { Categories = new[] { "Paid Members", "Active Members", "Retained Members", "New Members", "Lapsed Members" } })
.SetYAxis(new YAxis
{
Min = 0,
Title = new YAxisTitle { Text = "Total Members" }
})
.SetTooltip(new Tooltip { Formatter = "function() { return ''+ this.series.name +': '+ this.y +''; }" })
.SetPlotOptions(new PlotOptions { Bar = new PlotOptionsBar { Stacking = Stackings.Normal } })
.SetSeries(new[]
{
new Series { Name = "Total", Data = new Data(new object[] { 441, 441, 22, 30, 610 }) }
});
How can I change the Series to accept data from my DB?
Assuming I need to connect to DB like so:
var newcustomer = db.Customer;
Then do something like this:
new Series
{
Name = "Total",
Data = new Data(newcustomer.Select(x => ............
Any help would be appreciated!

For anyone else having a similar issue...
var paidmembers = (from c in db.Customer
where c.CustomerStatusID == 1
select c).Count();
var activemembers = (from c in db.Customer
where c.CustomerStatusID == 2
select c).Count();
new Series {
Name = "Category",
Data = new Data(new object[] {paidmembers, activemembers})
}
