I wouldn't exactly call that a clone since it doesn't support key features of statsd (e.g. gauges) and has unique features of its own (e.g. key/value pairs).

Looks brilliant otherwise.

It is actually just a difference of naming. Gauges in statsd operate the same as kv data in statsite. Originally, both projects referred to them as kv, this seems to be a more recent change in statsd.

+1 for saying "key/value" instead of "key-value".
