I have 11 metrics configured, and my metrics show 100/105 ListMetrics calls 
and 380/399 GetMetricStatistics calls *every 5 minutes*.

Certainly, the scraping interval affects the number of calls to 
GetMetricStatistics (I've tested 5 minute vs 30 minute scrape, and the 
number of calls is is reduced by 1/3 aprox) but in a way that is not 
obvious to me.

Also, the number of ListMetrics calls seems unecessarily high...
