Well, you've got the choice:
Use the raw XML that has the information available in a clear,
documented, and trivial-to-work-with way (getting the one bit of info
you want out should be about 2 lines of code - at least if you have
some XML libraries available), OR use the XSL mechanism to get icecast
to transform it in whatever way you want - possibly producing just the
single bit of data you want with nothing else.
