I've seen a couple sites that have tyhe server list and info about each one. Similar to the regular one at my.bzflag.org.

I'm interested in writing a script that will gather stats abotu my server so I can later look and see how buisy it is, etc.

Can anybdoy point in the correct direction? What all can I gather abotu a server?

You can find a php script- "bzlist.php" in the bzflag source tree under /misc, that would gather stats about a server and output it in a formatted page...
There are also some perl scripts and a python script, which I am not familiar with, but may probably have the same function as of "bzlist.php".

Maybe I'll try that and post the results.

Doesn't work TOO well. The list is fine, but you can't get the fine details of each server. Experiment here:

Try the python script then... It seems to be able to get all the nitty-gritty details about a server...

Yeah, I was fiddling with both files earlier.

Doesn't seem to work defaulty. In the source there was a couple places where it looked like things needed to be filled in, spicifically, a location to gather information. When I find some free time I'll look around the file more closely and find out what its supposed to be doing.
