Gauge metrics are not pushed to the statsd server

[chakas]

Wrote a simple code to push disk usage metrics to statsd using below code.
client.Gauge("test.snap.stats.filesystem.c_drive.free", 100)

but unable to see data from grafana.
Tested the same using bash script echo "eenadu.snap.stats.filesystem.used:3|g" | nc -w 1 -u 127.0.0.1 8125 and able to see data

So again did a force flush still not able to see data

Years late I know, but this was likely due to broken TCP support, which I've addressed in my fork. From memory, statsd expects a trailing newline for all stats read from TCP connections (since it's a stream), but doesn't like trailing newlines at the end of UDP packets.
