Get a CSS style value from custom component

Question

I have a style:

.rating{
      fontSize:24;
}

and a custom MXML Component of type s|Graphic. How can I get the fontSize value from the component in actionscript?

I tried:

public var fff:String = getStyle("fontSize"); //undefined (runtime error)
public var fff2:String = this.getStyle("fontSize"); // undefined (compile time error)
