This gist contains everything you need to install StatsD and Graphite on CentOS 6.3. Unless I forgot something. If I did, shoot a reminder email to noah at one more bug dot com. tl;dr: womm, ymmv, yolo.
I (mostly) followed the steps shown in the EZUnix wiki
And I also referred back to this gist by Michael Grace
