Changed the conversion from access long type to pandas float instead of pandas int, in order to support null values. Note that pandas just released int null support @ pandas .24, but still experimental.

float supports a smaller range than INT. This might be ok, but when dealing with IDs (which tend to use up the whole range of values), you will break code.
consider:
f = np.float_(1 << 53)
print(f)
f += 1
print(f)
(in case np.float_ is a 64 bit IEEE representation)
So this should at least be optional.

Since pandas .24 there is a Int type (notice the caps on the I), which allows nulls ints. If you are willing to require .24+ (they are at .24.2 now), that will fix it for both cases.
