Basically I need to write a program that will get values from a running game, namely MS Flight Simulator, and post these to the web, it will also need to calculate a total flight time from engines start to engines stop.

MS Flight Simulator is capable of outputting lots of information including Altitude, Speed, Heading, Lat, Long, etc via the use of a 3rd party module, basically I need to know where to start what program will I need to start writing this program?

If I can at least get the program I write to show the current data from the Simulator it's a start.
