Well at 6 weeks old he has to be with his mother, he has to be if not it's unhealthy. Please bring him to a vet because they can give you a more detailed answer.

This could be caused by a number of things. Have you changed her diet recently? Does she eat hard food or soft food? Is she even old enough for anything beside's her mother's milk?
If you are feeding her soft food, then that is most likely the problem. Soft food has a very large amount of moisture in it, and also has more fat in it. You should switch to a diet of half soft food and half hard food.
All dogs are born with worms, and she needs to get dewormed if she has not been already. You should bring her to the Vet to get her dewormed and vaccinated. This may or may not have something to do with the diarhea, but it will definately be helpful.
Another and much more dangerous reason for this could be that she has ingested some sort of poison. Anything from an everyday house plant, to an everyday cleaning solution could be very dangerous to pets. Try to think of everything she has had a chance to get into and tell your Vet about it.
Also, this may just run it's course on it's own. She might be a little sick to her stomach right now, and she just needs to get over it. If this is still going on (since you asked this question on the 31st) then it is probably something to worry about. If it's not still happening, then your puppy should be ok for now.
I would also like to tell you that next time you have a question, you should put an actual question in with it. For instance, "my akita is 6 wks old & has been feeling ill and has had diarhea for about 24 hrs"... you should have added something like "Does anyone know what could be causing the diarhea?" or "Can someone please help me figure out what is wrong with him/her?"
Putting a real question somewhere in it would definately help you get more people to answer it. People would also be able to take it more seriously.

Since he/she has diarrhea, she/he could have worms. Worms are very common in young dogs and if you have not already, you should bring him/her into your vet's office in order to worm it and also to give it its first, second + third set of shots.

Take her/him to the vet... I hoped i helped!! :)

Some new pets are like that when they are in a new place. He/She should feel better soon. If not taker it to a vet.
