Hi there,

While working with the gdata YouTube API, I've come across a problem
when trying to get a value from a namespace item not containing any
text.

When I want to retrieve the text from a item, it's pretty easy:

          namespace item:
          <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
          <ns0:title type="text" xmlns:ns0="http://www.w3.org/2005/
Atom">Merry Christmas and a happy new year!!</ns0:title>

          >>> for entry in feed.entry:
          ...     print entry.title.text

or even the 'type' when requesting the entry.title.type


I'm wondering if it's possible to the info of the favoriteCount and
viewCount on a namespace like this:

          <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
          <ns0:statistics favoriteCount="40" viewCount="22544"
xmlns:ns0="http://gdata.youtube.com/schemas/2007"; />

When trying to print, for example, a ' entry.statistics.viewCount', I
get the error that a 'Statistics' object had no attribute 'viewCount'.
Is there an easy way to retrieve this value?

I think it will be a bit bloated to start using regular expressions on
each statistic item to retrieve the information.

I hope someone can help me out.

Regards, Tom
