Have you considered making a normal probability plot? This should help
you evaluate the appropriatness of interpolating a log-normal. The
image of a mixture of lognormals would suggest limits on the accuracy of
such interpolation.
hope this helps.

Suppose I have a set of binned data, counts exceeding a series of
arbitrary thresholds, a total N, a minimum and maximum, those sorts of
things. Is there a "standard" method for estimating arbitrary
quantiles from this?
My initial thought is that the counts and min/max give me solutions at
vario
