You can use them as attributes, but unfortunately right now there is no way to get them as direct resources.
Well you can probably do it by being tricky -- use <item> to define a raw resource, and Resources.getValue() to retrieve its value. (One reason why this doesn't exist is if it made entries in R. for float values it would create code that can't compile since "float" is a keyboard. :p I solved that with ints by calling them integers, and booleans by calling them bools, but we never really needed floats so I never tried to come up with something to call them.)
