A few day ago there was much discussion on reddit about fees and confirmation times. I decided to make a small python script to monitor how long transactions take to get confirmed for various values and fees paid.
Here is what my default HTML output looks like. This should be fairly accurate data.
I've been testing it out today and it seems to work ok. So I've put it up on my github repo and hope that others find it useful. I don't have a public facing server with bitcoind running right now so if someone wants to serve a web page with the stats real time then that would be welcomed.
The program outputs two formats. It takes an HTML template and inserts data so you have a web page that gets updated for every block. And it has a CSV data dump as well for importing into other programs.
The code is in my
github misc repo along with some other handy Bitcoin utils.
Please let me know if you host it somewhere or find any bugs or issues.
