instead of having to check if statsd is False every time you want to call it, how about we wrap this up in a function, something like:

```python
def statsd(method, *args, **kwargs):
    if hasattr(conf, 'STATSD_HOST'):
        client = StatsClient(host=conf.STATSD_HOST,
                             port=conf.STATSD_PORT,
                             prefix=conf.STATSD_PREFIX)
        getattr(client, method)(*args, **kwargs)
```
