-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I also had in mind something along those lines. I started "collecting stats" (well, just saving the stats.html page to my hard disk) once every hour, ever since September 14 (so that's just over 1,100 files so far), using a program written in C#. If you want, I can send you my data. I don't know any PHP though (though it's similar to C++, and it's on my list of languages to learn right after Python :) ). I'd suggest developing your own robust Xml schema for saving the old data, decoupling the Html-parsing code from the Xml saving code, so you can go back and aggregate stats any time you want.
Also, along those same lines, I'm collecting stats about which maps are played the most here <http://ascendancy.us.to/realtime/all_maps.shtml>. It's only a 24-hour moving window though. -Mike On 11/1/05, Jorge Rodriguez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Adam "amckern" Mckern wrote: > > >Mr. Rodriguez (Star Ship Troppers?) > > > >Anyway, very good idea, and if i knew more of PHP, > >then i would love to give you a hand.
