You'll need to write a script that accepts filenames and deals with them as you require:

Then just call the script from your find command for all files over the warn size, the script can then decide if the file is a warning or a critical and deal as appropriate.

You don't mention your OS so I can't get too specific on how the script will check times and sizes on your OS.
However, on many linux systems you can use something like this:

Code:
read size mtime <<EOF
$(stat -c "%s %Y" filename)
EOF
printf "file: %s is %d bytes, modified %d seconds ago\n" filename $size $(( $(date +%s) - mtime))
