If GetRuns() returns an integer, it will be stored as an integer.

If GetRuns returns a string that can be read as a number (i.e. '12', which 
is a string with the characters '1' and '2'), you can use _.string.atoi() 
to convert the string to an integer:

<!--#call "REQUEST.set('numruns', _.string.atoi(GetRuns()))"-->
