On my server I find that doing
html2text scores.html
is helpful. It converts the html page to just a text file. Then its easier to parse out the info wanted.

Hah, and here I thought it would have been the other way round: that you could get the server to belch out unparsed txt data via this kind of postfix switches, which llamabeast had artfully turned into readable HTML
My proposed scheme becomes even more feasible then.
