Increment userid in file

Hello,

does anyone know how to increment a userid(number) written in any scripting language that works on a shell?
For example:

I have a HTML file in this format:

userid:
name:
telephone:

Every time I execute my script it adds the same fields, except with the userid incremented. Like this:

userid: 0

userid: 1

userid: 2

My script isn't always running, so the variable userid should be saved somewhere, so it won't reset and starts with userid 0 once I re-run the script.

Thanks.

NAME
fence_zvm - I/O Fencing agent for GFS on s390 and zSeries VM clusters SYNOPSIS
fence_zvm [OPTION]... DESCRIPTION
fence_zvm is an I/O Fencing agent used on a GFS virtual machine in a s390 or zSeries VM cluster. It uses the s3270 program to log the specified virtual machine out of VM. For fence_zvm to execute correctly, you must have s3270 in your PATH. fence_zvm accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. fence_node sends the options through stdin when it execs the agent. fence_zvm can be run by itself with command line options which is useful for testing. Vendor URL: http://www.ibm.com OPTIONS
-a IPaddress IP address or hostname of the Physical machine (required). -h Print out a help message describing available options, then exit. -u userid userid of the virtual machine to fence (required). -p password password of the virtual machine to fence (required). -S path Full path to an executable to generate the password of the virtual machine to fence. -q quiet mode, no output. -V Print out a version message, then exit. STDIN PARAMETERS
