get_ten_day_avg_volume reports wrong values #94

when using the function get_ten_day_avg_volume it returns a value that differs from the sum of the last 10 days volume divided by 10.

That is not being calculated by this module, but retrieved from yahoo. Is this module reporting the same value as yahoo? It's possible that instead of a simple average (arithmetic mean) you calculated, that the value is a 10-day moving average or perhaps less likely a geometric mean.
