Events are sent via HTTPS API endpoint, statsd instead? #79

The DogStatsD protocol supports Events: http://docs.datadoghq.com/guides/dogstatsd/#events

The godspeed library in use also supports the Event type: https://github.com/PagerDuty/godspeed/blob/master/events_example_test.go

It would remove a dependency to use only one type of event emitter, as well as remove the possibility that some networking latency causes any kind of slowdown upon emission.

Yeah - a good idea for sure. I wasn't aware of those when I wrote it.
