They're not supported in the syntax.

Yup.  Unless you only have a few.  Then you can do multiple matches on
strings.

-q 'name=/a,name=/b,name=/c,name=/d'

However, I don't know that it would run any faster than just doing the
grep externally.

For every possible day in a month, I'd definitely just use mminfo to
generate a large report and then cut it down externally.
