check_http with limits

[Steve]

I posted this to the user list without any response sorry for the cross 
post but this list seems more suitable for this request..

Hello,

Searching now for a way to use nagios to monitor a http post command 
which returns a numeric value (memory) to be exact its a java component 
that I can monitor via a http admin, a link within the admin returns 
just a single value for each topic..

I would like the response viewable within the nagios web and if it 
exceeds the numeric value of x would then shoot a error, a plus would be 
able to have nagios monitor/log the levels.  Considering MRTG to graph 
results..

Example:

http://ip:port/query?component=memory

returns me

100

if anything > than 500 returns I get an alert.

Again a plus would be to log the level at every check.
