Gathering usage statistics

so i have a script that runs across many servers. i'd like to know how many times this script is being used on each server.

the only straight forward, non-intrusive way i can think of doing this is to include a line in the script to make a webcall to a central server. and from that central server, i can count how many times each server is running the script.

i have the following basic code that i'm looking into:

Code:
echo -e "HTTP" | nc <ip-of-central-server> 80

Only problem with this is, i'm not sure if "nc" is installed by default on most unix systems.

if it isn't, is there an alternative to it?

Or, is there another straight-forward, and simplistic way to make an external call to a central server?
