Tracking Torrent Download Progress via Web Page



I found an excellent piece of code on Sourceforge that parses the XML statistics file generated by Azureus (Vuze) and serves it as a nice webpage. In my case, I am using my Mac Mini as a media center, so what better machine to utilize for 24/7 torrent downloading? I installed AzureusStats in the CGI-Executable folder of my Apache folder, changed the name in the script to the name of my Azureus .xml statistics file, and sure enough:


Now anyone on the internal network can see how long their favorite show is taking to download and when it will be done.
