Gophernicus server uptime leaderboard

-------------------------------------

Kim Holviala's popular Gophernicus gopher server has an automatically

generated selector (/server-status) which displays some server

statistics, including details such as uptime, number of requests

answered and number of kilobytes served. I've written a simple Python

script to scrape this content for all the Gophernicus-powered gopher

servers I know of, and nicely format the results into a leaderboard,

showing who has the most uptime.

I wrote this mostly for fun and out of curiosity as to the results. I

hope it might be useful for people thinking of joining a free

gopherspace provider who want to make an informed choice, but remember

that uptime isn't everything, and sometimes restarts are unavoidable

Often they're outside of the admin's power.
