Maybe displaying the logs as html on some webserver (apache?). If you need some options for the users on that "GUI", you can easily get that with php for example. Or cgi...
Else you might have a look into ncurses for C or Perl...
The question is, how user friendly it has to be? Sort/search options etc. or just an eye friendly display.
There might be also some fancy log viewer with built in functions - usually someone invented the wheel already so search the web, if you don't want to put too much effort into, writing something your own.

upsstats.cgi
UPSSTATS.CGI(8) NUT Manual UPSSTATS.CGI(8)
NAME
upsstats.cgi - Web-based UPS status viewer
SYNOPSIS
upsstats.cgi
Note
As a CGI program, this should be invoked through your web server. If you run it from the command line, it will either complain about
unauthorized access or spew a bunch of HTML at you.
DESCRIPTION
upsstats.cgi uses template files to build web pages containing status information from UPS hardware. It can repeat sections of those
template files to monitor several UPSes simultaneously, or focus on a single UPS.
These templates can also include references to upsimage.cgi(8) for graphical displays of battery charge levels, voltage readings, and the
UPS load.
ACCESS CONTROL
upsstats will only talk to upsd(8) servers that have been defined in your hosts.conf(5). If it complains that "Access to that host is not
authorized", check that file first.
TEMPLATES
The web page that is displayed is actually a template containing commands to upsstats which are replaced by status information. The default
file used for the overview is upsstats.html.
When monitoring a single UPS, the file displayed is upsstats-single.html.
The format of these files, including the possible commands, is documented in upsstats.html(5).
FILES
hosts.conf(5), upsstats.html(5), upsstats-single.html
SEE ALSO
