This a module to make interacting with the [stathat.com](http://www.stathat.com)
API easy.

    var stathat = require('stathat');

    stathat.trackEZCount('you@example.com', 'messages sent - female to male', 3,
        function(status, json) {
            console.log("status: " + status);
            console.log("json:   " + json);
        });

## Methods

### stathat.trackEZCount(email, stat_name, count, callback)

Track a counter using the EZ API.  `stat_name` can be a new stat name and

### stathat.trackCount(user_key, stat_key, count, callback)
