Get a list of the most played artists in La Planete Bleue radio show. Clojure version of https://gist.github.com/st/0c8512f916b944a3a23d.

Assuming you are on a *nix system with lein installed, you can run this gist with following command on a clean directory:

curl -sSLOO https://gist.github.com/rbf/dccd50e7bcfce45ba5a3/raw/{project,core}.clj && mkdir src && mv core.clj src/ && time lein run

This command will download both files below and begin the parsing of all broadcasted shows to finally list the 10 most played artitst. Please allow some 1.5-ish minutes to run, since there are more than 850 shows to date.
