Meet a strange(?) problem with types while using Rhino.

I have the code

var myvar = om.getObject("ObjectName");
//lets assume myvar.qty is 10
myvar.qty=myvar.qty + 10;
out.write(typeof(myvar.qty));
out.write(myvar.qty);

output will be
object
1010

Where om is my custom Java object.
Is there any possibility to extend Rhino engine to interprete such
values as numbers?

P.S. My assumption that the place where it can be done is somewhere in
Context.class or around

.
