I know several scripting languages well, and I too would like to script
this, but my question is, how would the script read the data?  I can
see using perl-http or whatever to just query the web interface, or
perl's gdbm to read the .db files, but i'm assuming, since i'm new to
ntop, that there's an easier way for a script to grab the data from
ntop to do the alerting?
