Now, how do I get the template's stringof to print out 'i_num.i' and not 'i'?

You don't. Using .stringof in conjunction with string mixins is The Wrong Thing (tm) in virtually all cases.

What do you want to achieve? Why can't you pass a string instead?

Because a string doesn't hold it's type information for size checking.

 int = 4 bytes or 32 bits
 string = ????

It also checks for unsuitable types like structs and floats; can't do that with strings.
