Collecting the mod strings of all servers?

Is there a tool or mod that fetches all servers and their mod strings, and exports that list for processing? Basically, a tool to find out which (or how many) servers are running a specific mod.

Technically, this should be possible, as this is similar to what the UI server browser does. I could try to build this, but of course I don't want to repeat work that has already been done.

    Afaik such a tool doesn't exist. What most modders used so far to get the number of servers using their mod was adding a server tag and searching after it at pages like this (servers running shine)

    Ah, that's much simpler, thanks.

    I've now added such a tag to my mod - but is there any way to verify that it's working (except running a live server, of course)? I checked the wiki, but I didn't see a console command to print that kind of server information.

    Shine didn't add any tag to my servers. Just saying.

    Did you maybe disable it in the baseconfig? See here for details

    No I just checked and tags are enabled. But I might have removed the tags manually later. Not sure. :)
