 * Hi, thanks for the great plugin we are doing some tests and seeing a diff in 
   price for weight average and wanted to get some clarification as to what is going
   on..
 * right now in our admin it says
 * Current Rates for 1 Bitcoin (in USD): Average=98.88, Weighted Average=98.88, 
   Maximum=98.88
 * at [https://mtgox.com/api/1/BTCUSD/ticker](https://mtgox.com/api/1/BTCUSD/ticker)
   as of right now, the ranges are around 110 to 109.. any idea why we are seeing
   such a difference.. this will really add quite a bit to the cost of our product
   for the user..

 * I backed tracked this in the module, it turns out in the bwwc-utils function ,
   the function calls blockchain.info first and caches that results, thus bypassign
   mtgox call.. so ideally you are getting the lower btc amounts that blockchain
   info is reporting (not sure what their calculations are)..
 * suggestion, provide a checkbox if you want to use mtgox or blockchain info.
