There is a good reason for this. The
P-value is calculated internally
as 2 * normprob(-abs(`z')) where `z'
is the statistic that is reported as r(z).
That is, the mapping is one to one, and
you lose no information from not having
the P-value returned as well.
So after -ranksum- you just need to calculate
2 * normprob(-abs(r(z))).
