Pie-Charts not working when data is passed as strings

IMO it would be an enhancement if Pie charts would also work when the data values are passed as strings.
e.g.
[{"data":"46153","label":"Series1"},{"data":"12841","label":"Series2"}]

Flot itself can deal with numbers just fine, if they are quoted so I think this would be consitent and makes it easier for integration with libraries such as the Google Analytics Data API (where the values come as strings).

I added a fix for this by altering the fixData function.
It now also checks for the string data type.
