I am an Unholy DK and I am only pulling 22-23k with an ilvl of 379. I know my gear isn't the best, but I am trying to get what I can from LFR and such.
My Armory:
http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/illidan/Devilspider/simpleMy priority: Diseases, DT, DnD, SS and i alternate between SS and DC and I use FS to refresh.
I am not really sure how to go about improving my DPS, but I love Unholy(It's a pet spec and I love pet specs and necromancer themes.) I just need some correcting on my gear and priority.

You may want to look at
woohaa's
Unholy Dps Guide, which covers rotation, stat priorities, and talents.

woohaa's guide, while good, is from 4.2.2 - so a bit outdated. Check
EJ if you have the time.
Some copypasted stuff in case you're lazy:
Standard Stat Priority
Strength > Hit to Cap > Haste > Crit > Mastery > Expertise to Cap > Agility
Adjusted Stat Priority for Gurthalak Owners
Strength > Hit to Cap > Haste > Mastery >= Crit > Expertise to Cap > Agility
Single Target Priority
Diseases
> Dark Transformation
> Death and Decay/Scourge Strike (UU or Death Runes are up)
> Festering Strike (BB and FF are up)
> Death Coil (Sudden Doom, high RP)
> Death and Decay/Scourge Strike
> Festering Strike
> Horn of Winter
And then there's generic dps things like synchronizing your cooldowns with eachother/raidbuffs/boss buffs, standing behind the boss, and using pve gear(Idk if that's your pve set, if it's not, forget this part)
Also, 23k with 379 ilvl is far from terrible - its actually pretty damn good for most people.
