that this seems to be the way to go for those seeking to

 . provide traffic stats (graphs especially)

 . alerts on traffic thresholds (presumably by having Nag services 
receive passive service check results from Cricket)

Would you consider submitting an FAQ about this matter ?

continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a
manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes
me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know
for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...'
