No, the white font and lines thing isn't in the config file. I modified the source. I can lookup the changes if you would like them.
here's the perl script used to obtain the values :

#!/usr/bin/perl



use IO::Socket;



$remote = IO::Socket::INET->new(

        Proto    => "tcp",

        PeerAddr => "empeg.comms.net",

        PeerPort => "80",

        ) or die "cannot connect to www port at empeg.comms.net";

$remote->autoflush(1);

print $remote "GET /php/online.php HTTP/1.0\nHost: empeg.comms.net\n\n";

my $REG=-1;

my $ANON=-1;

while (<$remote>) {

        if ( $_ =~ /\>(\d+) Registered User\(s\)\./ ) { $REG=$1 }

        if ( $_ =~ /\>(\d+) Anonymous User\(s\)\./ ) { $ANON=$1 }

}

$ANON--;

print "$REG\n$ANON\n0\nempeg.comms.net\n";

close($remote);

exit 0;
