An array of UInt8 is the standard way of moving "blobs" around in variants
(eg, raw buffers, etc).  Hence we return them as a string-like object (the
buffer should act like a string - slice and dice it etc)

If they really are small unsigned ints, you will need to use the struct
module to unpack the string.
