In general, I don't mind running such a script on the server, but as
I don't have enormous amounts of time to implement and monitor such a
script, I also wouldn't mind if e.g. petschge continues to run it. Less
of a central point of failure. The tile sizes and age is still weekly
being produced and available here:
http://tah.openstreetmap.org/media/filesizes.bz2

So the checks can run efficiently without having to query the server for
each tile.

If it is as simple as adding a script to a cron entry, I can do it on
the server. But as I said, I don't have plenty of time and the server
CPUs are busy stitching lowzoom tiles (and more continous disk access
from a tile checker slows down disk access for up/downloads of course).
