Something like this may do what you want:
sysuse auto, clear
g r=gear_ratio*10
twoway__histogram_gen r, gen(y1 x1) start(12) w(1) freq
twoway__histogram_gen mpg, gen(y2 x2) start(12) w(1) freq
tw bar y2 x2 || bar y1 x1
replace x2=x2-.25
replace x1=x1+.25
tw bar y2 x2, barw(.5) || bar y1 x1, barw(.5)
