I am pretty sure this is going to make me appear extremely retarded but I am going to ask cuz it has been bugging me.

Maybe epic does this already it their forum but......is it within the realm of possibility for a forum to display current info about player stats, activity and or server status?

If not, maybe it could be integrated into the framework of a future FPS? Anyone else ever wish they could check the number of occupants in servers while on iAM instead of hitting refresh over and over?

It's possible, just like the PS3 torphies site, but Sony has substantially locked down on people tapping into PSN for information.
 
As for UT3, if really depends on where the info is stored and whether the info is reachable. If Epic/Midway are storing the stats on their servers, then its up to them to allow 3rd parties to access that informtion. Creating an interface (website) to sort the info is easy.
 
Also, if you've noticed, I think Epic wanted to create player cards in the game from its inception, but that feature never came to fruition.
 
Lastly, as for knowing who's on the servers and the server's capacity, it may not be worth it since often times if there is a servers with 15/16, the server usually fills up between the time a person hits refresh and trying to go in there.
