Shoutcast has some basic stats available at http://server:port/7.html

there are 7 comma-separated values designed to be easily parsed.  I 
understand that Shoutcast's YP server uses it.

Presumably something is assuming that the stream URL is a Shoutcast URL 
when it isn't.

On a related note, I've had to get Icecast to generate 7.html.  I wrote an 
XSL template for this, but I've not found a way to have just one for any 
desired mountpoint, I've had to hard-code the desired mount.
