Auc-Stat-TheUndermineJournal is an Auctioneer statistics module that returns price data from The Undermine Journal addon. You must have either The Undermine Journal or The Undermine Journal GE addon installed for this module to have any effect.
Enabling this module within Auctioneer (by going to the Auctioneer settings panel and enabling The Undermine Journal as a Statistics module) will allow the market data from The Undermine Journal addon to be used in market value estimations by Auctioneer right along with the other statistics modules.

Thank you both for the bug report. I've modified the addon so that it will return the mean instead of the latest price when you drag items into the Appraiser.
The technical details are that Auctioneer isn't just using GetPriceArray() for the "seen" data as one of the Auctioneer authors had told me. It's also using it to grab "price" data, which is used by things like the Appraiser. However, the expected "price" is the "mean" price according to the example Stat module in the beta (unreleased) version of Auctioneer. I've changed GetPriceArray() in my addon to return mean instead of latest price data as a result.

I am seeing the exact same as you Niighblade. It seems as though it is using the Maret Latest and NOT the Market Mean. I seen it trying to post Blackbelly Mudfish. Market Latest is 24s 06c. Market Mean is 1g 01s 00c. When I put it in the appraiser window, I am seeing Buy per item of 24s 06c. Easy enough to get around, just punch it in manually, but that defeats the purpose.

Sorry, I'm still confused. Here's what I'm seeing:
TUJ tooltip for Solid Ocean Sapphire: Market Latest 5.56 Market Mean 8.39 Market Std Dev 4.78
Auctioneer, Appraiser window, pricing model to use: TUJ Buy per item: 5.56
That's the "Market Latest" figure isn' it?

Auctioneer gets fed data through GetItemPDF(), which uses the Market Average ("mean") and Market StdDev values from the TUJ data. The rest of the TUJ data is only for being shown in the Auctioneer tooltip.

Yes, that is correct: as long as this addon is enabled within Auctioneer (by going to the Auctioneer settings panel and enabling "The Undermine Journal" as a Statistics module) then its information will be used in market value estimations by Auctioneer right along with the other statistics modules.

Coasty Oct 09, 2011 at 22:30 UTC - 0 likesOK, a ticket was created.
I never really figured the TUJ author would provide an option to turn off the data tool tip info, it'd defeat the purpose of TUJ if he did that. Heh... I was harboring a vain hope that you could add such an option as part of your auc-stat module seeing as how you display the same info in Auctioneer's tool tip. Basically I was just commenting that if I had my druthers, that info would show up only in Auctioneers pop-up tool tip letting me reduce the size of the WoW mouse-over tool tip. I really only need to see that info when I'm actually at the auction house. I'm not going to hold my breath over this. LOL
That's a good point about improving Auctioneer's market value estimations, a point I guess that should have been more evident to me. You might want to stress that point a little more in your overview description of the plugin. So, if I understand this correctly, as long as I have your auc-stat module enabled in Auctioneer then its info will always be used by Auctioneer as part of its market value estimates. That right?

jlam Oct 09, 2011 at 14:37 UTC - 0 likesTUJ will always display it's own tooltip info. There is currently no option to toggle that and I don't believe the author of TUJ is going to add that option.
Auc-Stat-TheUndermineJournal has an option in Auctioneer to toggle whether it displays its info in the Auctioneer tooltip of the item. You can simply disable that. I have it set by default to show the info based on the current stack size instead of just per item, so it does show something a little different from what TUJ will show.
My addon is also mostly providing the internal functions to allow Auctioneer to use the TUJ data as price data to give a better estimate of market value.
I will investigate the issue with TUJ GE. If you could open a ticket on it, that would be great.

Coasty Oct 09, 2011 at 05:51 UTC - 0 likesI was wondering...
I installed v1.0 this evening to take a look at it. From what I see this duplicates in the Auctioneer specific tool tip what you already see in the normal tool tip when you mouse-over an item. In effect you see the stat info twice as, so far as I can tell, neither TUJ or your addon offers an option to turn off its stat display in the normal item tool tip. I guess I'm missing something as, so far anyway, I just see the addon duplicating what TUJ does already. Is more stat info planned in future versions?
What would really make this different, and more useful, is including an option to turn off TUJ's stat display in the standard mouse-over tool tip so that you only see the stat info when you activate the Auctioneer stat tool tip (which I have set to pop-up when I press the ALT key). Is it possible to do this? The normal mouse-over tooltip is big enough already, and this way one could see the info just when it's needed.
Also, v1.0 worked just fine with TUJ (I use the TUJ Garrosh Alliance specific version), but when I installed TUJ GE and turned it on in Auctioneer (my normal TUJ GarroshA was disabled for this test) nothing was displayed in the Auctioneer tool tip. It worked fine with one, but not the other. Not a big deal for me as I don't like the GE version of TUJ.
I do like being able to turn off specific TUJ stat info that I don't use in the Auctioneer tool tip. If there's a command line option in TUJ to do the same thing, I'm not aware of it. Actually, I don't know of any command line options for TUJ.

I'm just polishing the code before tagging the first release (shortly).
