curl is an excellent tool, but if I go that route, I'm writing a plugin
from scratch (which is more than a "whip it up" project). :)

And, as much as that's useful information, the additional benefits are
redundant - the ping checks should tell you lag time, etc.  If I'm just
checking, say, 10 pages on one host, response time is rather silly for
all of them (I think).
