Package statsd creates a simple statistics server that accepts UDP
data and peridically pushes the stats to a statistics end point.
UDP data packets each contain a single stat. If the packet begins with
a `#` character, then the stat is a floating point value to be set. Otherwise
the stat is an integer count that increments the stat's total. The data format
is the type character (if a value), a number, followed by a `=` (equals sign),
followed by the name of the statistic (max 255 characters in length).
The statsd server aggregates statistics and pushes them to a final "end point"
at certain intervals. Currently, the supported end points are:
