it would be getSeconds(), since it is supposed to be using the standard 
Javascript object for times ... however, it seems that QTime objects are not 
actually being translated into something useful :/

a small tweak to the dataengine should fix this by providing a complete 
DateTime object with both date and time, which QScript would then handle.

Time.toString().split(":")[0]
