I got bored today and made this: http://playercount.ev0lution.net/
It's a live counter of the number of players online in SA-MP, and the most accurate that it can be.
It works by querying every server on the masterlist constantly and updating the player count accordingly - this means that any changes are almost instant, and the count itself is much more accurate* than the SA-MP site, which only updates every ~10 minutes.
There's really no point to this other than to look cool, so uh.. enjoy!
* More accurate in the sense that it updates much more frequently and is a more accurate indicator of the number of players at the current time. Apparently it's not accurate because it queries more servers (and thus more players) than it should - the SA-MP site counter filters out certain "fake servers" but since I don't know how they detect these, I'm not able to do it. This means that at the moment, my counter will always be higher than the SA-MP site.
