This is the third version in two days, but I hope that's alright. Dramatic improvements happened every time. I originally wrote it just to kill 5 minutes any way.
Improvements for 1.2:
- Uses a seperate file (sig.dat) for storage of data (thanks to - Jesus Christ - for info about CPU load being way too high on some servers with the old system)
- Format for click-tracking is now just sig.php?URL instead of sig.php?url=URL
- Width changed to 468 to fit nicely underneath banners
- All the three main chunks of data are completely independant so that they can be edited without pushing the position of other chunks
- Code in general has been optimized
As always, the scripts notes when it is first started and resets itself the same time next month. Thus, it would be a good idea to reset it right after the next sig market so that potential sig buyers don't have to look at the "since" date to estimate how much exposure your sig gets during future sig markets (since they will be able to see a full month's data).
Instructions are in sig.php within the zip.

Remember to CHMOD sig.dat liberally (777) or SigMonkey will not be able to log data at all, and it stands still at a 1 view count.
This will probably be the last "public" version unless someone comes up with a very good improvement for it.
Thanks for your time.
