What is Qstat?

"QStat is a command-line program, written in C, that gathers real-time statistics from Internet game servers. Most supported games are of the first person shooter variety (Half-Life, Quake, Battlefield etc)" - www.qstat.org

GameCP uses Qstat to query online game servers, it is fastest, easiest and usually the most up to date method to do so, its old school and works great! Its faster then php so we have stuck with it for now.
