At any point in time, you simply need to know from the pool, the current 1diff share count submitted since the last found block to determine what the current "luck" would be if a block was found now.

My question is more about how to exploit the Eligius API using an HTTP capable JSON API, as direct JSON calls are a problem for vanilla Excel. Eligius seems to allow for HTTP/JSON calls as with the Last Blocks Found call below. And this HTTP/JSON works well with Excel.

When you go to the main landing page for Eligius, in the top right there are 3 variables I’m hoping to extract and utilize the raw values as published by Eligius.
Hashrate:   11,637.39 Th/s    Round Time:   00:30:53
Round Shares:   5368401920    Round Luck:   735%

http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/api.php?cmd=getblocks&limit=1&format=csv&csvastext=1 is the “type” of call that works fine but it’s not the “livedata”.
Can anyone offer assistance with how to call "HTTP" accessible JSON API call from Eligius to gather the same 3 variables listed on main Eligius landing page. At a minimum, I need Eligius "current round time" and "current hashrate" to do the calculation.  Huh

thanks!!!
