Bash script to parse Apache log for a count of RSS subscribers and email it to you
#!/bin/bash
# Schedule this to run once a day with cron. Doesn't matter what time since it parses yesterday's hits (by default).
# I only tested this on the Marco.org server, which runs CentOS (RHEL). No idea how it'll work on other distributions, but it's pretty basic.
# Required variables:
RSS_URI="/rss"
MAIL_TO="your@email.com"
LOG_FILE="/var/log/httpd/access_log"
