 function success(result){
 alert(result.name);

The code you need to use is

context.webAPI.retrieveRecord("entityTypeName","entityGuid", selectstatement);

You've entered the entityName of the record there not the entityTypeName (which to be honest I think everyone does when they first start doing this).
