Quickly, to use:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> import statsd
    >>> c = statsd.StatsClient('localhost', 8125)
    >>> c.incr('foo')  # Increment the 'foo' counter.
    >>> c.timing('stats.timed', 320)  # Record a 320ms 'stats.timed'.

You can also add a prefix to all your stats:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> import statsd
    >>> c = statsd.StatsClient('localhost', 8125, prefix='foo')
    >>> c.incr('bar')  # Will be 'foo.bar' in statsd/graphite.
