\arguments{
\item{siteNumber}{string USGS site number.  This is usually an 8 digit number. Multiple sites can be requested with a string vector.}

\item{parameterCd}{string or vector of USGS parameter code.  This is usually an 5 digit number..}

\item{startDate}{string starting date for data retrieval in the form YYYY-MM-DD.}

\item{endDate}{string ending date for data retrieval in the form YYYY-MM-DD.}

\item{statCd}{string USGS statistic code. This is usually 5 digits.  Daily mean (00003) is the default.}
