How would you suggest querying from php?

The way I have things setup at the moment is
I've created a statusd.c which every 5 minutes
outputs the result of the status() command to
/log/status.log

My php website then simply opens
~/mud/mudlibs/gpmud/log/status.log and reads
the contents which it then outputs as part of the
website.

Is there a more appropriate way rather than
having to use text files and a timer to output
to the file?

cheers.

Gary Preston.
