The GenericRules is using sum() in counter metrics

[jenciso]

The Generic rules:

• pyrra_requests_total (See here and here also)
• pyrra_errors_total (See here)
  Are using sum() Prometheus functions without use before rate(). It generates peaks and obviously, it doesn't make sense sum counters if you don't use rate before, it is explained here

It seems a bug. Please let me know if I am wrong.
Thank you

Hey, unfortunately, you're right.
There's already an issue here. Right now I have little time to fix the problem: #968

If you know how to fix it, a PR would be greatly appreciated!
