   *          Any rows that starts with the same prefix will be aggregated. For example, if
   *          the StatsPublisher uses the following compound key to publish stats:

   *          the partition specs (only for dynamic partitions) +
   *          taskID (last component of task file)
   *
   *          The keyPrefix for aggregation could be first 2 components. This will aggregates stats
   *          across all tasks for each partition.
   *
   * @param statType
   *          a string noting the key to be published. Ex: "numRows".
   * @return a string representation of a long value, null if there are any error/exception.

   * being aggregated.
   * Typically this happens when a job fails, or is forcibly stopped after publishing some
   * statistics.
