Shot noise and higher current moments T_M= are studied within the Anderson model of disordered conductors in dimensions d= 2, 3 and 4. Here t denotes a transmission matrix. We calculate the conductance G=T_1, shot noise S=T_1-T_2, Fano factor F=S/G and ratios C_M=T_M/G, and we show indications that all of them are as good order parameters as the conductance itself. In the limit of infinite system size, two limiting values of F and C_M are found; the stable one in the metallic regime, and the unstable one, characterizing the critical point for d > 2. We present analytical expressions for both limiting values, together with a compact formula for current cumulants at 3D criticality. Our data confirm also Nazarov's microscopic theory [PRB 52, 4720 (1995)], as we show numerically for special linear combinations of T_M.
