If you are using the Gnuplot backend with X11 output, you can hover
your mouse over the bar and find its height.
To make labels at the tops of the bars, use something like
for i = 1:numel(NN)
text(NN(i), frequency(i), num2str(frequency(i)),
"horizontalposition","center",
"verticalposition","bottom");
endfor
though in 3.2.3 at least the "verticalposition" property doesn't
appear to do anything, bummer.
To put the bin positions on the x axis, try
set(gca,"xtick",NN)
If you don't like the default labels, assign a cell array of strings
to the "xticklabel" property:
set(gca,"xticklabel",{"first bin","second bin"})
## add more if you like

Rob
