Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I didn't see it in a search on the mailing
list archives or in help or in looking through the FAQ.

Two part question:

1.  Where is there a list of the designations for the output for a command?
For instance, the example below is on the FAQ.  I tried guessing how
to display the estimate, like _mean[x] and _est[x] to no avail.

svymean x
Mean |   Estimate    Std. Err.   [95% Conf. Interval]        Deff
---------+--------------------------------------------------------------------
   x |   7.497354    1.154104    4.925852    10.06886    1.826019

di _se[x]*sqrt($S_E_nobs/S_E_deff[1,1])
    3.9138278

Also, is there some way just to treat the output as a matrix without the
names?

2.  Eventually, for y a binary variable, I'd like to do
svymean x, by(y)
and ttest whether estimates are equal at the two levels of y.

How would I call the components of this?

Mean   Subpop. |   Estimate    Std. Err.       Deff         Obs
---------------+--------------------------------------------------------------
x              |
        y==0   |   6.252655    .2913123    .9953564        2402
        y==1   |   5.087685    .6354503     1.30706         214
