I've added name in there in case there is a glitch and aura i is no longer aura name. How that would occur I don't know. How much of the aura system is accessible I don't know myself either. I recall limits on only seeing your own auras on other players or npcs. But not sure if that was Classic or Retail.
name will be nil when you run out of buffs in your scanning. For example, you're scanning for 40 buffs, but only have 3, when you scan for buff #4, it'll return nil because there is no buff #4.
