Ive noticed on poker tracker that AQo is my biggest loser and it's not even close. Would I be better just folding this hand at this point in my poker career?

AQo is a hand that gets a lot of people in trouble, it is tough to play correctly, as it shows in my stats as well.
In short, no, shouldn't fold automatically, but should play with caution and reserve... also, it is very situational, so examples help...

I tried posting some hands but it won't let me because I don't have enough posts.

What size of sample is AQ your biggest loser over? You can easily just be running bad with that hand.
Folding it preflop always would be really bad. Just don't go around calling 3-bets from unknowns with it or 3-betting it against tight opening ranges or auto stacking off with top pair facing lots of action.

How about AQs? After a few million hands they should be pretty close in how they perform.
I would suggest posting some of your AQ hands for discussion to make sure you are not leaking somewhere.
As previously offered, you might just be running bad with that hand. Over the past 50k hands I am down $35 with 88 but up $50 with 44. QQ and JJ are also up over KK during that same stretch. I am not going to start folding KK to 3bets anytime soon though.

Sample size?
I was losing with aces all in preflop for 30k hands at one point. Come back when you have a couple hundred thousand hands imo.
