This is a reporter for the go-metrics library which will post the metrics to InfluxDB.

This version adds a measurement for the metrics, moves the histogram bucket names into tags, similar to the behavior of hitograms in telegraf, and aligns all metrics in a batch on the same timestamp.

Additionally, metrics can be aligned to the beginning of a bucket as defined by the interval.

Setting align to true will cause the timestamp to be truncated down to the nearest even integral of the reporting interval.

For example, if the interval is 30 seconds, tiemstamps will be aligned on :00 and :30 for every reporting interval.

This also maps to a similar option in Telegraf.

This is only compatible with InfluxDB 0.9+.
