As reported on the forum[1][2], our p(90) query for New Relic doesn't produce the expected results. After some investigation, it seems it's not possible to calculate percentiles from metric data that our statsd output produces[3]. So instead of confusing users, it's better to delete this and clarify the limitation (see next commit).
