adsense income logger, server-side PHP

whipped up some code, anyone interested?

Google has allowed several people to write utilities to periodically monitor the Google stats report - they expess that it is "ok" as long as you don't try to grab it every minute (I think every 15 minutes at most is the recommended) and of course don't share the data.

None of the client-side (your pc) monitors that I have tried seemed to do exactly what I wanted and leave a nice little log, most were written in script languages I'd rather disable entirely in windows to prevent viruses - and also there is downtime on your home PC if you crash, turn it off or are upgrading hardware etc.

So I whipped up some basic PHP to do it and I am using a cron job.
Would anyone like to see the code? I am sure it can be vastly improved by some of the pros around here ;) You could make it email you when it reaches certain highs or lows, etc. (using some IM libraries out there for PHP, you could even make it IM you).

Note, this is NOT click tracker code (that's already been done).
Now I just need to find a way to make pretty graphs :)

Thanks for sharing this code amznVibe!

I did just modify your code a bit, to also include adsense search stats.

I'm planning to sum up the code and create a interface.

amznVibe, could you please send me a pm with your details, so that I can give you credit for your work?

Ofcourse the script will be provided open source (once it is finalized...:) )
