I am not sure if this should go here so if not could someone kindly move it.

Ok how do i get stats and so forth and pull certain things from IRC and the IRCD config file and then display them in php or store them in a database?

Several possibilities

Use a bot
Use some sort of Stats server (e.g. solarstats)
Use GNU Thales (IRC to MySQL gateway)
Connect with PHP to the IRC server
Maybe you could also write a Unreal module

Thales is something i do need to look into myself, when i find time...

Right now i use SolarStats for some information and modules like "ActiveUsers" found on angrywolf's site for other stuff.

forget thales and start using denora ... it rockz

uses same database-structure as thales, so the "old" php-scripts for stats on a website stil work ... with some differences ...

e.g., denora saves information also for users who are offline ... giving them the flag "offline" ( own column in the table ) ... the thales-scripts don't know about that ... to get the correct informations, change the SQL-query and add "WHERE online='Y'" ...

the details about servers ( uptime, users, links, versions, motd, ... ) also increased, user details are e.g. country ( using geodb ), hopcount ( amount of servers between denora and the user ) etc ...

the coders are the same as those from anope, using the same config-structures and ability to add custom modules ...
