You could on a cron write the output of the following command to a file somewhere in your web root, then use your Javascript to read the contents of that file.

Thanks.

I also found:

And:

Is there some simple way to just get a counter of the number member subscribed in a list?


I don't have shell access on the mailman server, me neither.

So I wrote:

wget -O - --post-data "adminpw=${adminpw}"  \
    "${listserv}/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/${listname}/members" > out

And started to hack with sed…

This gives some partial result:

sed -n '/<td COLSPAN="11" BGCOLOR="#dddddd"><center><em>/ { s/<[^>]\+>//g ; s/[^0-9 ]\+//g p }' out | awk '{print $2}'
927

The output stored in "out" have some accentuated character not matching the current locale of my bash session. So it seems complicated to perform the match with sed only…

I've rewritten it in PHP for the web purpose. It is simpler to match number.
I share it here, in case of some interest:
