st: saving -tabstatmat- output as matrix/data

Hi Stata experts
I was searching for a way to save -tabstatmat- output as a matrix so
that I can transform it as data. Any suggestion would be much
appreciated.
Lets consider the Auto data:
. sysuse auto, clear
. tabstat price, by(foreign) stat(mean) save
Summary for variables: price
by categories of: foreign (Car type)
foreign | mean
---------+----------
Domestic | 6072.423
Foreign | 6384.682
---------+----------
Total | 6165.257
--------------------
What I want to achieve is to save the following output to a matrix (or
any other way to make it the data)
. tabstatmat price
price[3,1]
price
Domestic:mean 6072.4231
Foreign:mean 6384.6818
Total:mean 6165.2568
Thanks in advance.
