   Yep, that's me.

   You are right, the subject is slightly off-topic. Let's move to
   private communication after this.

   The script has very little error handling at the moment. After I add
   error handling (soon) I will make an official release.

   In my experiments the message above appears if you omit to append
   "?auto" to the URL. It should work properly if you execute it like
   this:

   ./apache-monitor.pl prefix http://www.apache.org/server-status/?auto

   Let me know if it doesn't work after this and I'll chase the problem
   for you. Otherwise use the current version until the official version
   is released (which will be accompanied by the proper documentation).

Bye,
Ivan
