Add comprehensive Prometheus query examples documentation

Document demonstrates actual curl commands and their outputs for all
metric types ingested by prometheus-pusher:
- Counter metrics (app_requests_total)
- Gauge metrics (app_temperature_celsius, app_active_connections)
- Histogram metrics (app_request_duration_seconds with buckets, sum, count)
- Labeled counter metrics (app_jobs_processed_total with multiple label combinations)

Includes:
- Complete curl commands
- Actual JSON responses from Prometheus API
- Explanations of each metric type
- Additional query examples (filters, ranges, aggregations)

Verifies data ingestion works correctly with real query results.

+# Prometheus Query Examples - Data Ingestion Verification
+
+This document shows actual curl commands and their outputs querying data ingested by prometheus-pusher.
+
+## Data Ingested
+
+We ingested the following metrics using realtime mode (Pushgateway):
+- Counter: `app_requests_total`
+- Gauges: `app_active_connections`, `app_temperature_celsius`
+- Histogram: `app_request_duration_seconds`
+- Labeled Counter: `app_jobs_processed_total`
+
+---
+
+## Query Examples
+
+### Query 1: Counter Metric - Total Requests
+
+**Command:**
+```bash
+curl -s "http://localhost:9090/api/v1/query?query=app_requests_total"
+```
+
+**Output:**
+```json
+{
+    "status": "success",
+    "data": {
+        "resultType": "vector",
+        "result": [
+            {
+                "metric": {
+                    "__name__": "app_requests_total",
+                    "instance": "example-app",
+                    "job": "example_metrics_pusher"
+                },
+                "value": [1767127978.666, "4"]
+            }
+        ]
+    }
+}

+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Count Command:**
+```bash
+curl -s "http://localhost:9090/api/v1/query?query=app_request_duration_seconds_count"
+```
+
+**Count Output:**
+```json
+{
+    "status": "success",
+    "data": {
+        "resultType": "vector",
+        "result": [
+            {
+                "metric": {
+                    "__name__": "app_request_duration_seconds_count",
+                    "instance": "example-app",
+                    "job": "example_metrics_pusher"

+            }
+        ]
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Explanation:** 
+- Sum: Total of all request durations = 2.498 seconds
+- Count: Total number of requests = 3
+- Average duration = 2.498 / 3 = 0.833 seconds per request
+
+---
+
+## Verification Summary
+
+✅ **All metric types successfully ingested:**
+- Counter: `app_requests_total` = 4
+- Gauge: `app_temperature_celsius` = 30.84°C
+- Gauge: `app_active_connections` = 32
+- Labeled Counter: `app_jobs_processed_total` (3 series with different labels)
+- Histogram: `app_request_duration_seconds` (buckets, sum, count)
+
+✅ **Data queryable via Prometheus API**
+✅ **Timestamps preserved correctly**
+✅ **Labels attached properly**
+✅ **All metric types working as expected**

+
+## Additional Query Examples
+
+### Filter by Specific Label
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/query?query=app_jobs_processed_total{job_type="email"}'
+```
+
+### Range Query (Last 10 Minutes)
+```bash
+START=$(date -d '10 minutes ago' +%s)
+END=$(date +%s)
+curl -s "http://localhost:9090/api/v1/query_range?query=app_requests_total&start=${START}&end=${END}&step=60"
+```
+
+### Calculate Rate (Requests per Second over 5m)
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/query?query=rate(app_requests_total[5m])'
+```
+
+### Sum Aggregation
+```bash
+curl -s 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/query?query=sum(app_jobs_processed_total)'
+```
