Stats.d throws "connect ECONNREFUSED" error when graphite is on a different server

I have followed this tutorial to install and configure stats.d and Graphite :

http://www.elao.com/blog/linux/install-stats-d-graphite-on-a-debian-server-to-monitor-a-symfony2-application-12.html

However, my graphite can only see local agent and, when I start my statsd on another server, I have this error

30 Jan 10:50:29 - DEBUG: numStats: 3
30 Jan 10:50:29 - DEBUG: Error: connect ECONNREFUSED

Here is my stats.d local.js configuration file :

{
  graphitePort: 2003
, graphiteHost: "my.ip.add"
, port: 8125
, backends: [ "./backends/graphite" ]
, debug: true
, dumpMessages: true
}

It doesn't change anything wether I put the ip or the host of graphite.

Also, if this can help, the 2 servers (the one with stats.d and the one with graphite) are ovh kimsufi serveurs running Debian 7

Looks like a node issue(statsd is a node application) from here:

Set the server to bind to 0.0.0.0 and set the client to connect to the correct IP address of the server. If the server is listening on 127.0.0.1, it will only accept connections from its local host.

ENABLE_UDP_LISTENER = True
UDP_RECEIVER_INTERFACE = 0.0.0.0
UDP_RECEIVER_PORT = 2003
