I haven't too much experience with Applescript in Rev, but I can help 
in a simple script.
I use the following script to get the physical ram of the computer and 
I get the returned value into "the result" variable.

     do "get (system attribute " &quote& "ram " &quote& ") / 1048 div 
1000" as appleScript
     put the result into theRAM
