what livecheck does, it lets you type (the rather unwieldy) "port

You could use the simpler form: port livecheck maintainer:yourname.
Thanks, I feel better already! :-)
Though, I still find it odd that I have to use sudo. If I don't:
$ port livecheck maintainer:ryandesign
Error: Unable to execute port: /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/

It's non-intuitive that it would have to write anything to disk when
all I'm asking it to do is check the contents of some remote web sites.
