Arguments

dsd	A datastructure definition, see examples section,
sdmx_resource	: a character, type of info to be returned from the sdmx api: 'codelist' (default), 'data', 'dataflow', 'conceptref',
sdmx_format	: for data only, a character, format of info to be returned from the sdmx api: 'csv' (default) others no longer available.
lang	a character for language. Available are "en" (default), "fr" and "es". Can be set also with options(ilostat_lang = 'fr'),
count	a logical, count data records only if resource = 'data', FALSE (default),
