Instead of seconds*1000+usec/1000 as timestamp, use double representation as seconds with decimals.
No conversion has to be done when parsing output (timestamp can be compared directly to time of day dataitem, for example).
Also, there is no loss of precision when transforming final format to timestamp.
Altought this works for me, I don't know if this PR will break things, please review with care.
