Uptime error

As Patrick said, this plugin (as a host check) will only get run if a 
service goes into a non-OK state, therefore showing old information 
until it a service fails.

I have exactly the same plugin (written myself with a couple of 
differences to yours) which runs as a service called "Uptime" on every 
host - this way it is always run every 5 minutes and shows up-to-date info.

The host check is a simple check_ping.
