I m new to google adwords API. I was just wondering about how can we associate StatsRecord with a particular Keyword. For example, if I want the total statistics of the keyword, whats the way to get them?

Use KeywordService.getKeywordStats (http://www.google.com/apis/adwords/developer/KeywordService.html#getKeywordStats)

This returns a list of StatsRecords, one for each keyword. Now there is a question as to whether the stats records will always be returned in the same order as the keyword IDs that you pass in to this call. It's not clear from the documentation, although it appears to be true in practice. In any case, each StatsRecord contains an ID field (http://www.google.com/apis/adwords/developer/StatsRecord.html#id) which should correspond to one of the keyword IDs, so you can use that to associate stats with keywords.

Have anybody used statsrecord for retrieving statistical information of the keyword? i am getting errors in that. it seems that the statsrecord object is not associating itself with the keyword entity. does anybody have an idea about it?

If you don't tell us what the errors are, it's rather hard to diagnose your problem. Suffice to say that getting stats for keywords works fine for us. Are you trying to get stats for negative keywords?
