There is a perl library that can run rcon on a server.
http://www.gruntle.org/projects/hl2/Rcon-HL2-0.05.tar.gz
I use this small script to get info from a server.
=====================================================
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Rcon::HL2;
my $command = shift @ARGV; # bring in the title from argv
my $rcon = Rcon::HL2->new(
hostname => "XX.XX.XX.XX",
password => "rconpasshere",
);
$rcon->run("$command");
print $rcon->response();
=====================================================
For instance:
$ perl rcon.pl stats
0CPU In Out Uptime Users FPS Players
0.00 0.00 0.00 3976 8 124.35 0
This can be easily greped and parsed.
