script to autorestart if uptime greater than... help needed.

i'm trying to write a script that will check my os x box for uptime and autorestart gracefully if the uptime is greater than a certain number of days.

thus far i have this:

if uptime | cut -d ',' -f 1 | cut -d ' ' -f 4 -gt 10 ; then
echo "yes"
fi

this doesn't work and i've tried brackets, parenthesis, etc to get it to work. can someone direct me to the correct syntax please?
thanks!
