My plan is to create some new analysis tools for this wiki. This page might help others to implement their tools.

Get some page content ("Hello World!").
Write some code (perhaps PHP command line code) to do the same. Make sure this does not overload the wiki.
Download different kinds of page.
Do some simple statistics on the downloaded data.
Create reports in wiki markup.
If it works, upload them to the wiki.
