It would be helpful to have a way to set the major tick step value via the RadHtmlChart control.  This can be set on the client side, but it seems like a missing feature since I can change the major tick size and label step values via the control axis attributes.  Here's an example with my suggested attribute shown in comments on the xAxis below.

<telerik:RadHtmlChart runat="server" ID="RadHtmlChart1" DataSourceID="RequestDays">
    <ClientEvents OnLoad="OnLoad" />
    <PlotArea>
		<Series>
            <telerik:AreaSeries Name="Last Year" DataFieldY="Last"></telerik:AreaSeries>
            <telerik:AreaSeries Name="Current Year" DataFieldY="Current"></telerik:AreaSeries>
        </Series>
        <XAxis Name="Days" DataLabelsField="Days" MajorTickSize="5"> <%--MajorTickStep="7"--%>
            <LabelsAppearance Step="14" /> 
		</XAxis>
    </PlotArea>
</telerik:RadHtmlChart>

<script type="text/javascript">
        function OnLoad(chart) {
            var widget = chart.get_kendoWidget();
            widget.options.categoryAxis.majorTicks = { step: 7 };
            widget.redraw();
        }
    </script>
