Editing WoW:API GetStatistic

{{wowapi}} __NOTOC__

Return the value of the requested Statistic.

 value = GetStatistic(achievementID)

== Arguments ==
* achievementID (number) - The ID of the Achievement

== Returns ==
* value (string) - The value of the requested Statistic.

== Details ==
Using the achievementID's of actual Achievements, as opposed to statistics, generates strange results.  More testing is needed.

== Example ==
Here is a function that will take any statistic category (like <code>Battlegrounds</code>) and any statistic title in that category (like <code>Battlegrounds played</code>) and will return the statistic ID for that statistic, so it can be used in other functions.

<pre>
function GetStatisticId(CategoryTitle, StatisticTitle)
	local str = ""
	for _, CategoryId in pairs(GetStatisticsCategoryList()) do
		local Title, ParentCategoryId, Something
		Title, ParentCategoryId, Something = GetCategoryInfo(CategoryId)
		
		if Title == CategoryTitle then
			local i
			local statisticCount = GetCategoryNumAchievements(CategoryId)
			for i = 1, statisticCount do
				local IDNumber, Name, Points, Completed, Month, Day, Year, Description, Flags, Image, RewardText
				IDNumber, Name, Points, Completed, Month, Day, Year, Description, Flags, Image, RewardText = GetAchievementInfo(CategoryId, i)
				if Name == StatisticTitle then
					return IDNumber
				end
			end
		end
	end
	return -1
end
