This information isn't stored in the output file. Therefore it is not possible for the analyzer software to find the correct byte order. It is relative common to get the data from a low end AP in big endian mode and transfer it to another computer in little endian mode to analyze it. Therefore, it would be better to store it in network (big endian) byte order. The extension of the 8 bit bins for each bin to 16 bit is not necessary. This operation can be done in userspace or on a different machine. Instead the max_exp defining the amount of shifting required for each bin is exported to userspace. The change of the output format requires a change of the type in the sample tlv to allow the userspace program to correctly detect the bin format.
