Well,
as I used Dyyryath teamstats as my source and his website is temporarily down,
and as no teampage is available from DF itself,
I have implemented the 'tarball' option.
I now download the tarball 3 times every hour (I want up-to-date stats) and ( please don't ask me how long it took me to find a *working* program for Windows XP :( ) unzip and untar all files and parse them into my database.
Only thing that irritates me a bit is that this tarball does not contain the .txt files which are available for download at the distributed folding site itself. When I take the team81.txt file from the tarball, and compare it with the downloadable text file from distributedfoldling.org, the tarball almost always is older. I even have noticed a 2 hour difference between the files. As I still use the df.org file to produce member/subteam stats, there is always a difference between the cumulative member scores and the team stats.
Of course I could use the team81.txt for member stats, but those are not the latest so I don't want to use them for that purpose. So, a kind request for the df-crew if possible to make
- the team stats page as requested above
or
- have the tarball contain the same files as the ones on the df.org site
thanx very much in advance,

I've noticed the stats in the tarball are 2 hours behind (well they seem to be updated an hour after the main stats update)...downloading 3 times an hour seems pointless if the stats are done every 2 hours...
