(hope this isn't the wrong forum)

So has anyone scripted a way to get logged into AdSense, and scrape the day's overall earnings off of the starting page? I know that it can be done programmatically, I've seen a desktop widget before that did just that - kept the AdSense earnings on the screen and updating throughout the day.

I was specifically thinking of this, as I'm heading off for a couple weeks of vacation in May and July. Since I won't have Internet access for much of the time that I'm away, I was thinking that it'd be cool to get a text page each morning over breakfast, detailing the previous day's earnings. Granted, my daily earnings aren't at a point where they'd pay for more than breakfast ... but we all know how EAO - Early AdSense Obsession - goes.

Anyone done something like this (and is willing to admit to it)?

Following up on my own post ... I've Googled around a bit and found code that can get me logged in to AdSense via ASP. It was a trivial effort (really, a non-effort) to convert over to VBScript. Now I'm going to slap that together with some VBScript code that I already use to send out emails ... and voila! Now at breakfast every morning I'll automatically get a report on my cellphone via SMS on how the previous day went in AdSense. Nice!

Now if I could just get into double-digit (in front of the decimal point) earnings, I'd be happy!
