API to get stats from a given item

[VgerAN]

This seems like it would be a frequently requested feature, but I didn't see it with a search... I'd love APIs for easily getting stat information from a given item. For example, given Drillborer Disk, I'd like to know its stamina value, armor value, block value, etc. without having to actually parse the tooltip text to get it. So many different equipment-related mods would be able to take advantage of functionality like this, without having to build, maintain, and localize a library of regular expressions for parsing a tooltip.

The only option is to parse I'm afraid. There is a lib out there that'll do it (ItemStatLib was it?), but I don't know if it's actively maintained. There's also my GratuityLib to make parsing the tooltip easy, but you still have to localize your parse strings.
