Your best bet would be to use whatever scripting language you like
which has decent support for regular expressions. Expect to tweak
your expressions a bit as you discover the corner cases where you're
not getting the count you expect.

This thread is OK on admin -- which is targeted toward operational
issues. If in doubt, general can include just about anything. It
gets traffic about equal to all the more specific lists combined, so
it's a bit much for some of us to follow. Some people (like me) who
can't absorb the volume of traffic on general follow a few more
specialized lists where we feel we're best able to help. If
discussion on one list dies out without a satisfactory resolution,
it's OK to try another likely-looking list -- particularly if
there's no further repsonse on the initial list for a few days.
While there's a fair amount of overlap, you will get a somewhat
different set of people tracking each list.
