Python class to gather stats and slab keys from memcached via the memcached telnet interface

Basic usage:

from memcached_stats import MemcachedStats
mem = MemcachedStats()

By default, it connects to localhost on port 11211. If you need to specify a host and/or port:

mem = MemcachedStats('1.2.3.4', '11211')

Retrieve a dict containing the current stats from memcached:

>>> mem.stats()
{'accepting_conns': '1',
 'auth_cmds': '0',
 'auth_errors': '0',
 ... }

Retrieve a list of keys currently in use:

>>> mem.keys()
['key-1',
 'key-2',
 'key-3',
 ... ]

If you just want to list some of the keys in memcached, run this from the command line:

python -m memcached_stats <ip> <port>

ip defaults to 127.0.0.1 and port defaults to 11211.
