This is not an answer to PDF but does give an idea of CDF of some data.
The finction below takes the list of data, sorts it, Scales the list from 0
to 1 and Plots CDF on the y-axis and the values on the x axis. One would
imagine a PDF is the differential of the CDF but with real data this can
get quite bumpy.
ListPlotCDF[t_List,opts___]:=
Module[{l},l=Length[t];
ListPlot[Transpose[{Sort[t],Range[1/(2l),1,1/l]}],opts]]
