Thanks for the reply, Sean.

Orcallator already collects uptime... it's the third field.  It's a number... looks like this:

timestamp  locltime   uptime
1044334804 00:00:04 15169896

How do I interpret that number?  I don't want to get into running some external job out of cron if orcallator already has the data.
